Thanks, I just don't know if they are gonna be ready next week. I've been flushing the past week with just water, and I'm wondering if they aren't done next week will I be able to keep flushing or should I add more nutes...like now? Would water only for more than 2 weeks hurt? My trichs are all mostly cloudy still, hardly any amber.

I dont think another week or two of just straight water will hurt at all, just keep the ph steady...

For some reason I feel like the AG might extend the flowering cycle of weed...I dunno tho, just a thought...

Peace

Yea the buds are really fluffy, so I have no idea how much I'm gonna yield. I kind of want to try HPS next time and see what I get. About how much longer do you think they will take?

I'd say 2 weeks...

And if you get any buds that are all red hairs go a head and pick it....different parts of the plant will finish sooner than others...

It's gonna be nice...

try to take the bigger buds out in a week or 2 then lower the lights onto the smaller ones so they develop more

Yea I was definately thinking about cutting that top cola off and maybe some of the bigger buds, and lowering the fixture so they all fatten up some more.

Well I was looking thru my plants today, and I noticed that the little dwarf is full of tiny premature seeds. Must have hermied. Afterall it was under a lot of stress and it seemed like a crappy strain. The funny thing is, I haven't seen any in the other female. I'm sure I will once it's harvested, but I've been looking carefully through the buds and they all seem fluffy and seedless...but we'll see.

Anyways, I'm thinking about cutting the dwarf down tonight since afterall it had to have balls somewhere even though I can't find them. The dwarf also looks more done than the tall female. The trichs look more ready and the hairs are like 90% brown.

Alright, so I chopped down the dwarf hermie. I wasn't expecting much out of her anyway...
Doesn't smell that good, kind of a different smell i can't explain. :spew:

We got 6.5g wet, so that's gonna probably be a joint's worth when it's dry. The bud overall doesn't look too bad except the fact it's full of seeds. :evil:

Oh well, let's hope my other female doesn't have too many. :blsmoke:

I used the AG tablets that came with the thing by the way...

well alright thanks alot. this would be my first grow ever. lol.
is their a setting for 12/12????
and the lights arent high enough so ill probly start flowering at two weeks. is that when i can tell the sex???
Most Areogardens have a built in back up battery, or replacement battery so if the electric is cut it remembers your settings. Set your areogarden at lights on 24 hours, plug the Areogarden into a wallymart household light timer and set that timer to 12/12.
