Aerogarden hype finally diffused!

kushkilla · #1 12-24-2007, 06:50 PM

Ok so I have researched this forum for some time now and read almost every post on the aerogarden and my goal is to prove that for PERSONAL USE, the aerogarden is more than enough to satisfy. I will start my aerogarden and post a journal as the grow progesses. People, the aerogarden is plenty capable, its just that people have not been using it right can you say BONSAI? Ok yea I now I need more lights. bet prob solved 9600 lumens including the aero hood. No commercial guys hijacking, just accept the fact that us aerogarden usersgrow for personal consumption! If I do three autoflowering plants in the aero bonsai style I am confident I can get at least 3oz. Input?

Sounds fun. I just bought an aerogarden myself, but I wasn't planning on using it for flowering plants. I just ordered everything I need to make a DWC, and use my aerogarden for cloning and such. But if this works, I might reconsider. I started from seed 2 days ago and already have 2 nice little sprouts.

Good luck, keep us posted.

Start a journal and keep us posted. I would love to see a relatively inexpensive way for folks to grow (though I think seemorebuds methods are cheaper and already proven effective).

I myself got an ag and i placed the seeds in just yesterday and they have already sprouted. Ive been researching on the ag and I believe that with enough care and attention it should work perfectly!!!

i just bought one as a to me from me christmas present.

i took out the pre-made seedpacks and replaced each with one pot seed. i have 4 out of seven one and a half inch to 4 inch tall. my other three just got new seeds and they have already started to break. so far, one week has passed. about to get ph kit.

anyone know of varieties that like to be grown small? dwarf plants or micro pot? would be a great idea for small area grows.

i plan on pruning and i am just using normal commercial seeds for a test run. once i get to work then i'll step up to fem seeds.

you have, by far, the most successful aerogarden grow i've ever seen. the only problem is - i don't see much of the aerogarden left. It looks like any other DIY CFL/hydro system.

I'm not trying to be a dick - i'm just not understanding how this is an aerogarden grow. a highly modified aerogarden grow, yes - but isn't this misleading for people to think they can buy an aerogarden and with it alone, get some awesome buds?

Or i could be high and missing something...

well honestly if someone thinks that little light can handle a plant theyve got some reading up to do, that was my plan and then one day the lid couldnt go any higher and they were only a few weeks old so i had to make some decisions, so i removed the top and bought a light fixture for four lights that cost 13.00 and then 6 lights and 2 y splitters costing total of 52.00 so that aint shit to upgrade it. very cheap i think, especially if your gonna spend 150.00 on this system why not go the extra 50 bucks or so?

Why not, indeed? Your plants are great-looking proof!
