Growing in an Aerogarden

[Rose56]

Cheeseman, Those look wonderful! I typically grow auto flowering strains in the aero but I have also started clones with it and then transplanted them into soil after they developed a good root ball. I also plan on using them next year to start my outdoor grows earlier by starting them in the aero and then when they are a couple of months old transplant them into soil the two plants I planted in Nov that ended up not auto flowering are outside now and about 4 weeks into budding so I'll be harvesting in June and reveg her.

I know I'm digging up an old thread

I know I'm digging up an old thread

Hi everybody,

I'm not on your side of the world but here is the only forum (and thread actually) where I got so much information about the Aerogarden.

I've been thinking of buying one.

I read the whole thread but I still have a few questions.

What I learned (for growing cannabis with the Aerogarden) :
- use autoflowering strains
- get a pump and an airstone
- etc.

What I still don't get though:
- are nutrients from the Aerogarden used?
- what are the light cycles to be used or is it not important at all (autoflowering)
- what about the watering?

Thanks

Hope this thread isn't dead.... this is my first post and grow. I got one of these for free and figure I'd give it a try. I have the classic and am wondering do I upgrade to the improved light stand? What about the nutes?

If you can, upgrade the light stand. If I recall correctly, the upgrade lets you go taller and adds a light(for three bulbs total).

As stated above, most people use the Aerogarden brand nutes 'herb' or 'veggie/tomatoe' with no problems.

Grow a short strain. Autoflowers are popular to use with the aerogarden. But shorter afghan and kush genetics can also be used.

Good luck!
