Hello all, Im using this aerogarden right...
seems like everytime i add Nutes things start to go bad for me :-/ I am using 1/4 Nutes and still seems to be burning or something, now i am getting small brown spots on the older leafs but the tips are not browning. this is my first grow so i am new to it all. what should i be adding? i am in the first week of flowering. and whats the deal with misting my leafs? the sprayer im using you really cant call a mister more like a soaker, can this be causing the little brown spots??? thanks for all the help in advance!! I would post a pic but the close up shots needed to see the spots come out like crap :-/ :cuss:
 
make sure you're pre-dissolving the AG nutes before adding them. Chunks can get on your roots and cause burn. It's a hassle to dissolve them, but it is worth it. Just chop the tab up into small pieces, put it in a water bottle and shake that sucker up like there's no tomorrow! haha.
 
...if you mist your leaves while your lights are on, you'll get burn spots on your leaves. I only mist leaves when I have an emergency....and then I do it while the lights are off.
 
...do you have a ph meter?
...do you have a ec/tds meter?
...for many obvious reasons, newbies usually grow in soil until we get the whole understanding of all this. And growing in soil, stick to organic fertilizers, IMO. It's hard to over feed them , and pH isn't such an issue. Most get good results, even first time growers in soil w/ organics. Good luck.
 
Thanks guys!! I am using the lights on the aerogarden whatever they are and added 3 100 watt clf's im not using the nutes that came with the AG im using HESI hydro Bloom and HESI hydro growth!! as far as the misting yes i am misting with lights on :-/ didnt think it would burn with the lights im using, Maybe i was wrong!!! i've really stay on top of the ph also so dont think that would be causeing it!!
 
I use a ph test kit, The hydro growing is what interested me so i wont be using soil and i dont have an ec/tds meter as of yet.. is this something i am gonna need? whats it for anyway lol??? thanks for your input sir!!!!
 
Lucas... i will check it out, the only reason i got the hesi is cause the guy at the hydro store recomended it and like i said im new so i bought!! have you used the hesi before?
 
...nope, never used the hesi. I did a little research before I bought anything...and have found the Lucas Formula to be the cheapest....he says like 12 cents per./gallon or something. The best thing about the lucas formula to me is, I only change out my res inbetween veg./bloom...then dump it at flush! Talk about easy ?!! :bigjoint:
