Thanx and it is a hydro fertilizer that I am looking for...I wasn't sure if I needed tri pack of fertilizers or if there was a one size fits all fertilizer??? I'm just trying to grow it the most efficient inexpensive way!!! Any advice?
I wouldn't spend the money on the three pack unless you feel like it, just buy one for veg and one for flower. Do not mix them and make sure it's for hydro. :hump:

A stab in the dark with my new Aerogarden Deluxe (Larger Lights and Extension).

I have been wanting to grow for years. After glancing at an Aerogarden Add I decided it was time. So I purchased a few different seed sets from 3 online shops thinking that at least one would end up being seized by customs. I received all 3. The first seeds were Californian Orange from Dutch Passions which I purchased through Magic Bus (Legal Highs - Magic Bus Magic Bus). I popped seven of them in the pods and placed the domes over them. They all sprouted..... But one just couldn’t seem to get rid of the seed shell. I started nutes by dropping 2 of the small tablets that came with the AG. Shortly after I read that the AG nutes were junk....so I replaced the res with tap water only. Seven days later I have 6 healthy sprouts and the Fox Farm is in the mail. I don’t plan on using the nutes for another seven days. My current setup is in a closet covered with mylar. I have used a large candle warmer to regulate the air temp and I cannibalized a 6 inch CPU fan from my brothers computer to circulate the air. I must say that this has got to be one of the most rewarding hobbies out there. I am constantly reading all applicable posts and getting pretty obsessed with the project. So my plan for now is to get a Homebox (buy-the-homebox.com - universal indoor grow box kit), a six inch inline exhaust fan with scrubber and a decent HID lighting system. I will continue to update and post pics.
Use some SUPERthrive with the tap water until your nutes arrive. You can buy it at any Lowes or any garden center.

I need help!!! I am trying to purchase fox farm fertilizer and there are so so many choices. Which fertilizer(s) do I need in order to get my plants to grow the best? Thanks!
I got all of them and if you go to their website it shows what nutes to mix in certin weeks of your grow.

general hydroponics has a good line of all in one nutrients
using the flora nova and flora bloom with no problems
check their website for good info and even a schedule basic layout

and [email protected] yes it is a nutrient problem for sure.

This is old so I might be late, but really you only need the Grow Big and the Big Bloom. However, getting the tri-pack makes more economical sense. It's about the same price, and it will last you for a few grows. Plus, a little more prolific budding.

Oh, and for those who grow both soil and hydro... The FoxFarm hydroponic nutrients can be used for soil. You just dilute, and adjust the pH (if you must). It's probably more cost-effective than getting the soil nutrients too.

Thanks for the bit about the light cord.....that will help me in my project when the new light hood is available from aerogrow... I have been growing from seed for a few weeks. Good results. All three plants are about 4 inches tall. One new trick I learned was to place a piece of wood under the front part of the base. this tilts the unit back a little and allows me to put more water in the reservoir.
i used all the nutes provided with the AG. I bought it used from craigslist and most of the nutes were for flowers....worked just fine...now i am using Ecogrow 14-6-17 N-p-k...just started a few days ago.
one other project i am working on is a self grow box that will actually allow the plant to grow to 24 inches tall. i was inspired by those computer grow boxes but there is no way that you could get a worth while grow when the plant is limited to 1ft max of growth....ultimately i plan on getting an old refrigerator ..gutting it and removing most of the hardware and converting it to a grow room..

I dont know if people still want to know but I found realy good seeds for sale at Marijuana Strains Pictures and Descriptions . I was also wondering a few things
1. if i trim the tops to bring light to the bottom, prevent burning and enjoy my hard earned harvest a bit early will it grow back where i trimmed it.
2. what kind is the best to grow short but wide
3.my aero garden is on backorder so i started a bit early just to see what would happen not realy putting it in a good environment or taking care of it besides watering it and my leaves are only on the second set and my stem is realy tall and skiny, so it was leaning off the edge of the pot and the wight of the leaves stretched the thin stem to the point of barely being able to stay atached, i moved it just in time but is it worth the effort to continue on with it or should i just start all over when i get the ag
4. one a different site it said that if its too humid you might get mold and the aero garden is 100percent humidity
5. im getting the deluxe with a 24in hight extension, how much will i probely yield(please give 2 estamates, 1 for the first time and 1 for the second time, im a very quick learner)
I appreciate any answers

ps. vote Ron Paul for president and get it legalized, if all stoners over 18 voted for ron paul we couldnt lose, tell your friends and VOTE

my AG is in the basement. if it were going to mold, then i think i would have it by now. one thing i have done tho to prevent root rot is to put a few drops of peroxide per liter ( two cap fulls in a full reservoir) . i have a little prob with algae growing on the sponge that i used in the seed pod, but other than that i havent had any issues.

Peroxide wouldn't hurt it? Or does anyone know a better way to change the resivour without ripping the roots out off of that lil black sticks that the roots grow around

Hydrogen peroxide is great for killing bacteria off for sure. low dosages
doesnt hurt the plant at all...
just keep the black stick thing out of the way by removing one side and setting it more inward instead of right below the two front pods worked for me. then they seemed to grow under it and not around it.
yeah me too....:-)

ive never changed the water in the reservoir. i mix up the water and nutes in a old milk jug and just add the mixture to the reservoir as it gets low. my plants still look great. no brown or yellow spots...just pesky algae on the growing sponge

Yep, just set the timer to 12/12. At the top nodes, males will start to develop balls or pollen sacks, and they should appear first. Females will develop two little white hairs on their nodes that will eventually form buds. Check out my thread for some good pics, I had a few males before my female started showing. Also, search and read the forums... they are more than help.
