So Im walking through target the other night, I happen to look to my right and I spotted one of those aero gardens that you see on TV.. now, I know that people have mixed feelings about them, or so Ive read already on some other sites, but what do you guys think about those? Im not looking to get the BEST shit out there, just something suitable for me to smoke thats gonna get the job done. I was thinking about picking 1 or 2 of them up, throwing a couple lowryder seeds in them, and letting them go.. you think its worth it?

I just bought one of those a month ago from target. this is my first time growing. i put 6 seeds unknow what kind (out of shwag) and had 3 sprout. they took off like mad!! in 3 weeks they were 10 in tall. all i did was use the packet it came with set on GARDEN GREEN and added water and nut every 2 week


i have almost lost one plant due to stem rot. today it broke completly off so im working on trying to save it? hope it works. but as for the other 2 growing strong with no problems at 4 weeks today they are 14 in tall i will try to get my pic uploaded to show

I had done some research on them and to my understanding, they do not have a 12/12 setting, but I'm sure there's a way around that other than manually turning the light on and off. Also, with your nutes, were they just the ones from the kit, or were they something you bought elsewhere. Ive seen some stuff thats been grown in them before, it wasnt the best I've seen, but thats not saying a whole lot, I've seen some bomb ass shit, but this stuff was really a whole nother level from what I had heard about the results you get from a setup like this, I was pretty impressed. It would just be nice to have a way to grow my own shit here in a system that dosent need to be constantly tampered with due to my long school hours and even longer work hours. Id like something I can just set up and let go, and in the same respect, be compact and efficient enough to the point of where I actually get high rather than have nothing really happen to me from the brick I've found around the area I'm in at the moment. This just seemed like the perfect solution to my problem!

Another thought is, what about smell.. Im not thinking that having 2 or 3 small plants going is gonna end up in an overpowering smell over pot ruminating through my house.. but I do like to have people over here and there, and not that Im trying to hide the smell per say, but just taking precautionary measures so that lets say, if my family members come over, not that I care if they smell the pot, but mainly just outta respect Id like to have a house that people can enjoy sitting in and not be bothered by the smell of pot if they dont smoke or have some sort of issue with it.

it's a funky little unit but you would be better off diying a dwc/bubbler tub. they are fine for vegging and cloning (assuming you don't get stem rot, i was lucky with my first grow using one, but have had stem rot doing clones.) but you will need a lot of extra lighting for flowering.

check my two journals in my sig. any questions and i'l be happy to answer.

White Label Purple Haze from Sensi seeds




And after vegging with the Pro 200 Aerogarden Hood for 90 days I removed the hood and in its place is This
