no doubt appreciate it. we'll see what we get.

have you ever thought of trying to prune them early to branch out and try for "micro plants"?

i think i may try that to keep size of area down.

thoughts?

yes it does. well I will start a journal in a few weeks. I was intending on using the AG for flowering but after a little-little thought I figured it would be best to use a 6 plant homemade dwc bubbler under 250hps and six 26 2700k cfl for flowering. So far my seedlings have took off at a rate at LEAST 3X that of any dirt grow ive done Aero bulbs and 2 26 watt cfl for veg(edit) sorry.I have a 30 gallon tub for dwc I will transfer the seedlings and clones to when ready. The ag is great! but it is best for seedling and clones if you want more than one plant. and you will need additional lighting. even to veg if you really want results. I started like every other aero grower wanting a turnkey system for personal growth, but when you figure in the price its better to build your own and suppliment with additional lighting. DO Not GET IT TWISTED, the Ag is a great learning tool for the newb and will put you on the fast track to a truly productive grow. Holla! Et- al?

It seems like the normal bonsai techique would work for cannabis, I don't see why not. The question to me is when you start to flower the plants, will they produce sizeable buds?

I'm doing the same thing you are, except only a 16 gal, 4 plant dwc under a single 400hps. I agree, the aerogarden, even after only a few days has sprouted 5 so far, and I just planted two more. This being my first time grow, I wanted to find an easy way to start out, and so far the ag has worked for me.
