Hi all, I'm new to soil I'm used to hydro. I want to know what soil can I use that would be perfect for my plants. I'm probably going to get Fox Farm Ocean Forest and use it throughout the entire grow. However, I'm keeping the budget low on this grow, starting with 2-3 seedlings, I'm using CFLs...

Hey, it's been a while, no more AeroGarden, which was a huge success, but this time I'm going Organic Soil. Got a few questions, I have a 25 Quart (6.25 Gallons) pot I picked up from Home Depot, and 3 small pots for the seedlings. I'm going to be using CFL's and a small T5 2 Foot Fluorescent...

Starting a new indoor grow, I haven't grown in about a year. Still have my 400 Watt HPS and MH lights. To be honest, I don't feel like going hard this time, juss a laid back 1-2-3 grow. So I don't feel like making my own mix and my Aerogarden pump needs replacement and new filter. So what is...

Ok, my plant will be 3 weeks old tomorrow (8/23). In a few places, petrusions showed up, I know it's the first sign of sex. But is it male of female? I think it's undifferentiated, pictures up close aren't that great, I'm gonna try and get better pics. Can you tell (unreliably) by the way my...

This morning the leaves were fine, went down this afternoon, some leaves were twisted completely to the side, now almost all the leaves are twisted to the side. Why? Temps some get to 100, and in the same conditions now the temp is 90. I figured it got too hot, and raised the light a little...

My plant is under a 400w MH conversion bulb in soil. Sometimes I'll turn the MH off for a few hours and turn on some CFLs to save some energy, the 400w MH and air conditioners don't make for a good power bill. Anyway the plant slightly stretched when it had its first true leaves, now its...

Ok yesterday the lights were off from around 7am to around 12pm on my seedlings 9long story). So i figured fine, not too bad. Well when reseting my timer last night, I fucked up. The lights were off when I checked this afternoon meaning the seedlings are getting like 11 hours of light today...

I have two seedlings, you can see in the thread link below. Ok anytime from 7am to around 12 pm my lights were off because somebody fucked with my garden which is another story. Anyway, will the seedlings that were completely in the dark be severely stressed? They're under a 400w metal halide...

First time using ballast and HPS/MH. I want to know, is my ballast supposed to get hot, like hot to the touch? It does make a loud buzzing noise. It's black and quite large. Last thing I need is a fire.

I have a 400w HPS and 400w MH but I fell like its not necessary to have that much light for 3 plants. I might bust out the 400w HPS for flowering but thats it. So whats better for my sistuation, I want 3 small-mid sized blants with a good yield. 150w, 200w, 250w, or what? Thank you! Note: So...

Hello everyone, starting a new grow. I usually use the AeroGarden Pro 200 with CFLs. But I've stepped it up. I bought a reflector, ballast, and an HPS bulb and Metal Halide bulb. I am growing in what I believe is 2 gallon pots with Miracle Grow potting soil that says will feed my plants for 3...

Ok, I never really fully understood the pH system. I know how nutrients run differently on the pH scale from all base to all acid or neutral, which is great for pot in soil (6.5-7.0). Anyway, HERE'S MY PROBLEM... If I use MORE THAN 1 nutrient that is neutral or at least close to neutral on the...

Ok, I must admit I must have gotten rusty since the last time I grew a plant. But I guess i'll find out the hard way. One thing I do want to defintely get an answer on though is something I've never done before. I've never grown a plant outdoors, however it's summer, the sun is strong and the...

Ok, this is my second grow. Last one went great besides early harvest. It was extremely potent. Time for Part 2. This time I've got Unknown Dank. The start date is 1/21/09. So far I would say it's going quite well besides what I believe to be is Nute Burn on the 2 first sets of leaves. The...

Ok I couldn't find n appropriate thrad for this but this seemed the closest because people tell storys here. Anyway...Last night me and the Posse bought an 8th of weed, some crazy dank shit. I can always handle it, it's weed. So i roll 2 Ls and the biggest one we do first. After that 1 L I...

Ok well last harvest was ok for 1 plant and forced early harvest by about a week but there was 1 problem. It was too big for my likeing and stretched. Now, I want to start a new grow in the AeroGarden (Pro200) and with added CFLs. I want to keep it short, yet have a solid middle stem of bud...

Ok, well I have some lovely Kush. Welcome to the Qwerg Aero Grow Journal. Let me fill you in, 1 Kush Plant which is indeed female. Purps turned out Male so it was removed. I use the Aerogarden Pro 200. 1 Large AeroGrow Nutrient and 1 Miracle Grow Nutrient Through Veg and 2 Large AeroGrow...

My plant is almost 24 inches tall, maxing out the height for an Aerogarden Lamp Hood to stretch. I'm 3 weeks flowering and hairs are popping out everywhere on new budding nodes. However, the nodes with the most hairs and that are looking the best keep getting too close to the lights because the...
