If you get a decent flowering light a noob should be good for 1.5 oz to 2oz. That's from seed with a 4 week veg' period, 1 plant. Get your nutes right, quality nutes matter, veg' for 6 weeks and you could double that. IMO.

I have no experience with aero. I am going by DWC, and extending things a little.

What kind of light is good for flowering? My main concern is heat because this is a closet grow and I don't want a fire-hazard. Are the aerogarden nutes really that bad? I am basically broke after buying this, so I can't afford anything else except maybe the new lights after 4 weeks. I have lots of seeds, should I put one in each pod?

All I need to produce is enough for about 1/2 oz. per month or so.

Basically I just want to keep it small and as simple as possible. It sounds like I can expect the total time from seed to harvest is like 8-10 weeks? The reason i ask is that I have it on a free trial for 5 weeks or so. If it isn't doing well for me at that time I can send it back and only have paid the $20 for shipping. After 5 weeks though, it sounds like I will already be flowering maybe?

Obviously if I use better nutes or better lights I would get a better yield, but this machine seemed really low maintenance and simple, plus it has a free 36 day trial.

it is simple just use fox farms and get some side lights and an airstone it's pretty easy other than feeding it every day i have 3 plants and 3 clones

I like your setup r32115. What's an airstone, and what's it for?

Is it stupid for me to try to do a grow using everything stock on the aerogarden? ie: no other nutes or lights, just a separate lights timer for flowering.

I may be able to find some side lights before I flower, but I'm not sure.

Just looking at the design, I am thinking I could probably build my own "aerogarden" for pretty cheap, which I may do eventually, but I kind of want to do an experiment just to see how well this thing can perform on it's own.

So far I have 7 seeds in the aerogarden since Thursday. 4 have already germinated! I have no idea what I'm going to get from these seeds. They are a mix of bag seeds I've collected over the years from California, Oregon, and Mexico. When selecting my seeds I tried to pick seeds that all looked different from each other, some light, some dark, some with spots, and different sizes. I am hoping that will give me more varieties, but who knows.

An airstone (a way of diffusing and spreading tiny o2 bubbles) is connected to an air pump which pumps o2 through the airstone. The stone is under the water the pump above. O2 to your roots is a great thing.
As far as doing a stock aerogarden grow goes i have not done it so i cant really say, but i would recommend to get some other nutes and extra lights.
Thats all i done and got good enough results for me.

Do you need an airstone with the aerogarden? I thought the roots we out of the water in their little pods.

the airstone helps for the aerogarden by giving the roots more o2

i have only spent a total of $300 including ferts, and extra cfl, and aerogarden

red spectrum floro tube is a must

diyco2 is awesome (yeast, sugar, water, and a tube)

all is bagseed 4th pic is Nickie the Fuckin lobster queen (from boston) we think white widow or NYC DIESEL, Delilah is the first obvious indica, Grace is third obvious sativa, as well as Nickie, clones are from Delilahx2, and Nickie

Are all those plants in the aerogarden? I count 4, yeah?

Watch them closely, if this is the case. I grew 3 plants DWC in a 4 gallon container, one of the plants died off as the other two took control of the root space. It happened about half way through flower. One of the plants just didn't grow as well and started browning off, I chopped it down before it could die properly.
