Aerogarden- 11 days, getting better.

Ok this is my story. 13 days ago the original aerogarden arrived on my doorstep and i set it up and began immediate germination. 2 days later the 4 seeds were ready to plant. I removed all the seeds that came with the aerogarden pods and inserted the marijuana seeds. This is my first time growing so I used rainwater because I thought it would be better and no nutes. At day 8 I posted a thread on cannabis.com where i got various replies about my pictures saying the yellow leaves and brown spots was due to a lack of nutrition and that my plants were starving, and not to use rainwater because it lacks in calcium.

So in conclusion I emptied my resivour water and filled it with tap water and added 2 of the nutes that came with the original aerogarden. It has been 3 days and some of the plants seem to be picking up although 1 of them on the far right seems to be giving up on me and its roots have stoped growing.

After ALOT of reading on posts today i figured that I am probably using to much nutrition atm and that I should probably go out and buy airstones and an airpump.

My light settings are at 17-7 on herb/basil settings since this is the highest the light setting can go on the aerogarden for the vegitation stage.


What is your view on my situation?

ok 11 days , id start feeding for sure , but only start with 1/4 strength . u can use the ag nute tabs but there shit and they take ages to dissovle propley. go out to your local hydro store and but some good nutes that not expensive . i allways use tap water its good it have alot of micro orginisms or whatever due to rust dust etc , but if you use tap water allways let it sit for at least 24 hours (everyone knows this i know) but id go probly 2 days , i simply just go out and by some stuff that kills chlorine from local pet store , saves alot of hassle. now if your roots dont look good there probly drowing or rooting due to poor air circluation. if its root rot youll know just feel the res if its slimey . if not just go buy n air pump+stone .

plus go get some hydrogen peroxide 3% it help with oxygen in the water and kills bacteria n stuff . but u cant use it with stuff like hygrozime and cannazyme

I do mine 24/0 in the AG. I had what appears the same issue at the start and was from using the AG nutes, soon as I cleaned the res they perked up. Looks like they are stretching too, if you don't, get a small fan blowing on them to get them strong. Look at the roots, they should be white, if not, then that could be the issue too. Pump with Airstones will make a huge difference. I would take some tweezers and get those other seeds that sprouted out of there before they grow too big, don't want basil growing between your roots.
