Could be the fact that you are attempting to grow with an Aerogarden. Your roots have nowhere to go, the amount of lumens being delivered to your plants is minimal. While it -could- work, this is just being cruel to your ladies in my opinion. If you are concerned with cost, check out the CFL growing forums. You'd be amazed what you can do with them, and they cost next to nothing. I'm assuming energy/expense is your concern, and why you chose the aerogarden. However, it will not produce adequate buds.

I wish you the best of luck, however....seeing how they are so small after a month....Hope is what you will need.

so what would be better a dwc/ bubbleponic system or the aerogarden i was gonna make a bubbleponic setup/ i have a 400w mh but its only 4000k so i dont think it would be any use?

There are some great do it yourself plans on how to make a killer DWC system using only a 5 gallon bucket with lid, a simple air pump, and air stone. I built a bucket complete with a pre-fabricated net pot lid, air pump and stone for less than $20. Explosive growth, and very easy to setup. I would not recommend doing this if you do not have P.H. or EC/TDS measuring meters, as hydroponics are extremely reliant on knowing your numbers.

Don't let that put you off though, you can get a simple P.H. test kit from your local Hydro shop for $10-15, and a basic digital Hanna meter for ~$30 USD

Are you kidding me right now Geeesh???? aerogardens rock!! Have you ever grown in one!!! they produce some real sick ass bud!!! if you dont believe me check out my last grow, i grew tiny plants with a great yeild! next i will be making bigger plants with more of a yeild!!!!

Now Daggo,

please tell me why your ag is soaked lol you dont need to foliar feed!!! what are you using for nuts??? please give me as much info as you can!! i will be able to help you get some nice plants!!! if i were you i would only grow about 2 plants in the ag. you do have to many plants in there, but they shouldnt be a problem yet unless they have serious roots!! which i dont see them having!! so take your 2 favs and work with them in there. i would suggest making another lil homegrown aerogarden and add those other babies you have to them!!! it is so much cheaper to build your own to!! but anyways filll me in with all the info. and dont be afraid to pm me!

For the price of said aerogarden, I can build a 12 bucket recirculating DWC System, and yield much, much more. Hell, one DWC bucket done right under that same light he has, will yield him anywhere from 3-6 ounces. Granted, a 12 bucket system wouldn't fit in a fridge, but the results would be exponentially better. Growing cannabis in an aerogarden just seems like a waste of money, and more of a hobby grow; than anything near fitting medical needs. I can easily consume an eighth or more in a day, of top shelf meds. I don't think an aerogarden would even come close to meeting my medical needs. Some folks are different though!

I know I'm coming across as negative, but my goal is to maximize yield without spending an incessant amount of money.

i am curious to know how you get qp from 2 plants under lights more info would be great thanks?

also i baught a 65w cfl 6500k for 10 buks do you think this would help or be better than the 2 5000k 26w fluros that come with the aerogarden..

daggo18 · May 25, 2010

hey thanks guys ive put th 400w mh abot 12 inches away from pants and they have seem to like it they are growing pretty good.... also as a experiment i toped one of my plants just above the second node and its taking it well will post up some pics later?

glad your ladies are liking the light! you can also add that other 65 watter in there as it will help also the more light the better! now as for my plants i had my aerogarden lights do all the work on the sides of the plants and had 2 metal halide bulds running also, buds from the very base of the plant to the top!!!i also have 3 aerogardens

daggo18 · Jun 1, 2010

hi guys just letting you now that i have put a 400w mh 4000k above the plants about 10-12 inches away from them.
but ive only got bit over 2months left on my lease do you think that i could flower them before i gotta leave.
allso will the mh do the job to flower them and a yield estimate would be greatly appreciated thanxs will post more pics soon

Da420Monkey · Jun 4, 2010

yes and yes!! if you have a good indica you can flower in 8 weeks but she may need more time. the lights will help with flowering. estimating you yeild will be hard! only you have a true idea of what it would be

daggo18 · Jun 4, 2010

thanks bud.

Kgrow · Jun 4, 2010

daggo18, I wouldn't mist the small plants because they get easily burnt. one of my seedlings almost died because of this

stumps · Jun 4, 2010

i don't think you can pull it off in 8 weeks. But good luck just the same.

daggo18 · Jun 6, 2010

this is one i havnt topped

all together in new bubble ponic setup with a 65w 6500k cfl

the buubles from the 45ltr bucket

the new aerogarden plants 2 week old

this one here was topped on its 3rd node 3 weeks ago since topped wich is under a 400w cmh 4000k

this is all plants in the big fridge 45ltr bucket

this is wat the topped one looked like when topped

just to make sure use understand how it is ive got two fridges one big fridge that has cmh 400w with three plants in it at a month or so old than in the small fridge i have a 65w cfl (will be getting a bigger light for it) with a 25 ltr dwc bucket that houses 4 plants at 2 weeks old?
