Just got my aerogarden (still waiting on seeds) but I got my setup planned out, and I need some help for optimum growth. Goal: to produce 2 ounces of bud in 2 months using the aerogarden (between 2-4 female blueryders). Makes a nice quart a week for me The first attachment is the part of my room the aerogarden will be in (I'm not sure what will happen to the walls but I'll line it with plain paper for reflecting light + protection). The second is a view of my closet, the light from the corner of the picture is where the aerogarden is (I'm planning on using that square piece of wood on the floor to make a makeshift 'door' to cover the majority of the space). The top is le…

Hey Everyone. Been awhile since i have been on...but im glad to be back I was reading an article the other day in my local community newspaper about this, 70 year old man in my community and.... had a crazy hydroponic setup pumping some massive plants... and the cops raid him and you know...done the usual, take the plants and equipment....but they also took his red cordial, because apparently on the last 7 days before he pulls them, he flushs them with rain water for 4 days and then for the remaining 3, he flushs them with red cordial and the smoke is more of a fruity taste....... I dont no> Do u reckon flushing your soil with red cordial for the last 3 days w…

So just after getting the heads up from you lot on COCO or what I was doing wrong, I'm now thinking about an NFT system for the following reasons I have grow cupboard 800x600x1800mm roughly. I could easily build a system out of containers/tubs etc from bunnings I wont have to pull any potted plants out of my cupboard to flush them in the sink when its time to flush anymore(pain in the arse) I wont have the sluggish rates of growth that I am experiencing with soil although COCO is much faster than soil, however again when I need to flush or upgrade to a bigger pot I wont have to do this with NFT just change the water. I wont have to buy any more bags of soil or C…

Long story short long time reader first time poster,, had Two grows in a row produce nice juicy nugs full of seed. On my second stuff up I discoverd my Elctronic ph meter was faulty and Had been giving approx 20 times to much Ph down,, So after shit loads of reading I have concluded I have stressed the plants forcing it to seed. ( some light leakage and heat stress I might add to, but all sorted now) So this is some very expensive seeds and I am have concluded I can grow these babies sex them and keep the Females. I then give them a good dose of Dutchmaster reverse in the first week and third week and bobs your uncle ! i should have no more seedy weed? Well thats it , …

i have a 6x7x8 room at 12 hours continuous co2 run, calculations say i should set regulator at .08 which feels like nothing coming out of tube. my room is somewhat sealed but not airtight due to heat reasons i cant change.my meter goes to 2.0 max which i can feel if i hold it to my face,but still not a really strong flow.My question is,is that normal flow,and what signs of over co2 should i look for.(i read over co2 will halt growth which is obviously no good and worse than no co2 at all)

I have a problem where my flowering females have had to go outside because I'm using my grow room to veg up some clones. I however have a tall skinny freestanding wardrobe. Its 400mm x 400mm x 1800mm. I have a spare 400W HPS. Am I dreaming that could 12/12 with a single female and maybe scrog it? I'd prob put in a 150mm extraction fan, I've got one in my 1.6 x1.6x 1.6 grow room and it sucks very well. :: I'm planning today to try it out without a plant in and check the temps. Harry

I am doing an indoor organic grow (can't tollerate the chemicals in some hydro) and as a very ill person with a totally disabled wife we need a steady supply to deal with pain, seizures, muscles spasms (etc, etc) so the concept is a three grow area production line with a regular creation of clones (or from seed) and onward to veg and then flower (one area is flourescent for babies, one for veg, the other for flower). The two larger areas are 5 foot by 7 foot by 7 foot, each with 2 400 watt HPS. This way we should get several ounces for each month (just enough to kjeep the pain level down a bit). As I said, I have done this before, but I have health problem that effect …

I am growing in some 1 gallon buckets and am going to be transporting them to a location outside soon. I was just wondering if the plants would be alright though. My plan was to bury the pots a little bit into the ground and then that way they won't get too big. Basically, my spot isn't that top-secret so I don't want to be growing trees. My concern is the plants getting root-bound or something. Anyone try growing in 1 gallons before?
