Can you vegg & flower using just an AeroGarden?

Hello winnn420. Since it's your 1st time out the gate, you won't be wasting your time. You'll be able to flower, you just won't get the nice, tight buds you'd see using HPS. But hey, you're doing it man! That's more than many can say. We all had to start somewhere before we could evolve. Best of luck and welcome to growing your own.

PS: Are you going to start journaling? jJ

I'll do my best to keep a journal. I've just been really busy the past few weeeks with limited time to get on the computer.

hey jJackson, I was wondering if you could maybe help me with a couple of questions I have. First off, I'm using bag seed, I planted 6 days ago in my AG without germinating.

all 7 pods have sprouts now but I don't know how long I should veg or when to start flowering. I've read several posts here saying to start flowering after only a week of veg but that seems very soon to me. Can you please clarify for me??

Also, should I keep the pump running 24/7 when I switch the lights to 12/12??

And lastly for now, what nutes do you recommend for veg & flowering??

Other then that, identifying males/females will be my next challenge...

what up bro put your lights on 24/7 for 2 weeks then cut back 12/12 and be patient they will grow...

Cool, thanks...do I leave the pump running 24hrs when the lights are running 12/12??

I have mine on herbs cycle and so far 1 week in budding lost 1 nice plant, I think it was because i didnt change the resv. I had a white powder substance growing around the root and it killed the plant. Get some more lights and u should be fine.

Winn just to give you a little knowledge. It does not really matter how long you veg really, its all about how much space you have. Flowering plants will double to triple in size, so basically you need to make sure you have room, also if you have the lights to penetrate.

Areogardens do not go incredibly high, so you are going to want to flower when they are smaller, so they you have adequate space. Also I did not think that A.G's could be set to a 12/12 setting?

Anyways I think you could do a grow in a A.G and it wouldnt be a waste of time. However you could have a much better grow if you just picked up like 2-3 cfl's from walmart for cheap, and used them as side lighting. Even just those 3 cfls will make your final harvest sooo much better.

Goodluck man, and I hope that everything goes well, ill keep a check up on your grow journal, so keep us posted = )
