    my first grow... some quick questions

    Hey guys! I'm probably going to buy the aerogarden 6.0 elite+ and try out the new system and hope it works as well as the classic does. I have some quick questions about what I'm doing with the aerogarden... I've ordered my own nutrients online... the general hydroponics micro flora bloom...

    Will the Aerogarden 6.0 elite+ tomato grower work as well as the other aerogardens?

    Sorry I was wrong with my post above... one of the descriptions I read online told me about the misting. I just called and asked the actual company. Didn't mean to post bad info! The way this model works is it grows the roots by "wicking" or... just like the other aerogardens do. In this model...

    Will the Aerogarden 6.0 elite+ tomato grower work as well as the other aerogardens?

    It is... but if you read my post above, you'd see that the way it delivers nutrients are different (airation / misting of water / roots) and also that the sponge used for germination is different. This is the later model. They figured that before it was too crowded, and that with 6 bigger pods...

    Will the Aerogarden 6.0 elite+ tomato grower work as well as the other aerogardens?

    Also, does anyone have any idea if the rez still works the same way, but it just constantly mists the roots? I've already put in an order for hydroponic nutrients and I want to be sure I can still use them! :D

    Will the Aerogarden 6.0 elite+ tomato grower work as well as the other aerogardens?

    Hey everyone. I've been reading Aerogarden forums on this site for days now but I can't seem to find anything about the Aerogarden 6.0 elite+ http://www.aerogardenstore.com/promotion/index.php?promoName=catalog&pageName=product_aerogardens&viewProduct=6000-0GP Unlike the other aerogardens, it...

    Is this nute burn???

    The containers are the bottom parts of Sunny D bottles :). I washed them thoroughly, though I doubt Sunny D will have any kind of major effect. I will get right on to covering up the outsides of the containers... I didn't know that light could be damaging the roots through these. Thanks for...

    First CFL Grow - Help appreciated

    How far away have you been keeping the lights? Have you been monitoring the distance daily? A good distance is about 2-4 inches from the plant. Some strains of plants will just be shorter and bushier than others, but where you position the lights plays a key role. If you have your lights too...

    Is this nute burn???

    The water I am using is indeed city water, but we have a Brita water filter on our faucet. I also let the water sit out for a few days to ensure chlorine evaporation. I know it can't (99% sure) be the water because the other plants growing in the original soil are still growing perfectly fine...

    Is this nute burn???

    Also, last question I had... I still have the soil that I transplanted the seedlings from (where the other 3 plants are still growing absolutely fine). Should I just transplant my now obviously nute burned plants back into their original soil until they've been growing for 3 or 4 weeks?

    Is this nute burn???

    Okay... this make sense. I do have a few questions though. Firstly, is it better that I try and wait out this plague I set on my plants, or should I try to flush the nutrients out of the soil and then water them with diluted fertilizer later? If that's a good idea, how long should I wait before...

    root rot?

    You're over watering them. The plants don't mind getting a little dry inbetween waterings. As a general rule, you can stick your index finder in the soil down an inch or 1.5 inches; if there is any moisture at all, dont water. If it's bone dry, go ahead and water them. The reason for this is...

    Is this nute burn???

    All these plants were grown from seeds. I germinated them with a wet paper towel and they sprouted fine. They're not feminized, nor do I know what strain they are. I don't know why the soil temperature would be too hot... the lights I'm using are relatively low power and far away. I used Scott's...

    Is this nute burn???

    I'm not using high powered lights. I'm using four THEORETICALLY 23watt bulbs (CFL's that advertise being equivalent to 75watt or 60watt bulbs while only using 23watts of energy) for all of the plants. The lights have always been at least 2inches + away and I'm 99% sure that isn't the problem. I...

    Is this nute burn???

    Hey guys. I'm a new member here and it's my first time ever trying to grow. I honestly used some random soil I found in my apartment already to see if they'd grow at all, and it turns out they grew great. However, when I made up a soil mixture of approx 20% perlite, 10% sand, and 70% Scott's...
