its not bad enough for a chiller so to compensate add 1 tsp of h2O2 in your rez .. to combat the slime
Where can you get this?
Is it the sort of thing you'd go into a garden supply store and ask for straight up? and ask do you have any Hydrogen peroxide?

you can buy h202 at walmart(makes sure it doesn't have any additives) but if you have a hydro store go there and get some 29 percent, it costs like 9 bux a liter but makes up much dilute h202.Aerogardens have like a 3 gallon res don't they? Kill the aerogarden next time and opt for a 5 gallon bucket and an air pump.

no one is a shitty grower .... everyone has to start somewhere .. its a learning curve ... there is alots of methods around to flower .. pick one and stick with it ... ie 12on/12/off , 10on/14off , there are a few others and lots of guys will tell you lots of things ... just remember NO light leaks in the dark period ... period ... your havin fun and learning lol shit happens as long as you learn from it

well they do look like they will stretch like hell during the first weeks of flowering .. so read up on LST and supercropping .. you may need to do a little to keep them from getting unruley during flowering , keep the light as close to them as you can ... i keep my 400w about 16in away .. rule of thumb .. place the back of your hand under your bulb ... if its too hot for you .. too hot for your girls ... feed them lightly .. watch them closely .. you may still get a decent crop off .. if they dont hermie on you from stress

and OP, if you can't keep water temperatures below 70 F think about running beneficial bacteria, great white or voodoo juice are a couple. you can brew your own but for someone with a really small grow the ready to use products are probably best.

Wow thanks, thats a heap of help :)
I've been LST them as well thats why they're bendy lol Now as far as flowering goes... I got told the opposite on this site -.-
someone said to keep them much further away from the light during flowering??? I'm, not using my 400w HPS just now because of the electrical bill... i live at home :/
So Im using the lil 40w's which have always served me well haha

and to be perfectly honest .. i use my aerofarm for cherry tomatoes , beans, peas and peppers .. didnt like the way it grew my precious girls .. i went to self watering buckets and am looking into maybe trying dwc (5gal pail, netpot, hydroton and air pump .. depending on how well my self water do lol .......... but i know others on here use aerofarms and have awesome grows with theirs ..

happy growin
