Ok I'm using a basic aerogarden that was given to me and utilizing a lot learned in this thread https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/34120-daves-aerogarden-grow-pics.html.
For my first grow I'm using the "free" 5 seeds I had delivered to me so I have no clue what they are. Just hope at least one becomes a female.
I was given an AG with5 pods growing regular herbs, I cut them all out and replaced the sponge with a new cut up kitchen sponge. I germinated the seeds using the plate, bowl, paper towel method. After 2 days all 5 seeds sprouted to about 1/4 inch and I transplanted them to the sponge and into the aerogarden.
Dave's thread said he kept up with the AG nutes since they controlled the PH. I'm going to try that as well. Starting off with no nutes for the first 2 weeks and then putting in 1 every 2 weeks for like the first 2 months and using a 1/4 nute whenever if the plants look like they are desiring some. I forgot when he switched to using the full 2 nutes so I'll go back to reading his and update this.
Here is my beginning setup:
Aerogarden
cherry tomato seed pack nutes
Air pump from walmart
Emergency blanket from Johnson and Johnson first aid kit (will setup after 2 weeks)
Topped the AG with foil
Started germination on 6/19/08 and moved them to sponges on 6/21/08
Will add pictures soon, got to reboot
