yeah, they're tied up to bamboo skewers now. i'm going to go see about taking my light off the unit right now to lower it to the seedlings. thanks guuys!

about cloning...i can get some kush clones that are about a month older than mine. should i add them and continue vegging and flower all together, or should i get the clone, put it in a sep. pot, and go straight to flower?

No....you cannot grow them together. Vegging and Flowering plants require a different lighting schedule. And usually the space requirements vary as well.

Clones are good for the AG, there in rockwool right? im not sure but i think i saw that the rockwool soaks up water too good and dosnt work well with the AG, idk if you have seen Gyspy Bush's AG, read post #25 https://www.rollitup.org/hydroponics-aeroponics/101376-mini-aeroponic-garden-3.html

alright, got it propped up as low as i can. hopefully i won't have to nix the two in the back b/c they're gettin so much taller. i want to go get a daylight spectrum bulb for my big cfl, but i'm that broke that i can't even afford a lightbulb. that way i could just lower the reflector over it and be done. anywho, let me know what you think.

oh, yeah. i knew that, but what i meant was, should i continue to veg the clones along with the seedlings and flower them all at the same time, or put the clone in a diff. pot and just start it on flower right away. i have another light that i use for flowering.

Yea there strechin but they should be good, do you have a place for flowring yet?

i was going flower everything in the AG in the closet, but if i get this clone, i'm going to have to flower it in soil in another room. possibly laundry room, so that i have the space and i can go 12/12

Yea idk if you look at that thread i posted but gyspy ha da clone in rockwool and had to take it out, it soaked up the water too much and he basically pulled it out of the cube and into the AG, almost gave him mold n shit but he got around it, where you gon get the clones from?

ive got a buddy that's got a few ladies in his closet with a sunsystem setup. he's been using everything foxfarm...soil, nutes, etc.

oh shit, thats cool. why dont you just use those cones to grow, or is he just giving you one? cause if he cuts them you can just root them in like a party cup with no rockwool and transplant that into the AG

how would i go about rooting them in the AG? i thought about putting them in the plastic ag cups INSIDE the soil so that when i put them in the ag, the roots would have grown through the plastic cup and that would support it. or is there an easier way? he said he'd hook up 2 clones. i'm just afraid to put all my effort into the clones and then they not survive. then i won't have sprouts OR clones.

Yea im not too sure on how to clone, usually they just take a cutting, dip it in rooting powder and place it in the rockwool, where the roots grow, i saw a you tube video where in stead of the rock wool they use a party cup then actually transfered it strait into soil, most of the time people use clones for Aeroponics n shit, but if sure if you do the cup thing, they you can just put them into the AG, but i would ask around a read up a lil, thats what im doin now haha

You should be good with them now, if they droop as mention just prop them up. And yea can veg seedlings with clones no problem. Ill keep an eye out.

good luck on your grow with the aerogarden...i have one also...

i think i solved the problem for now....also went and saw my perpetual clones. nice healthly mothers. beautiful! here's my ghetto-rigged solution....

good to hear, did you figure out how your going to put them into the AG? haha ghetto is good

nah, i'll cross that bridge when i get to it

Yup looking better. Just keep them lights right on em!

they're grown a lot over the past 24 hours just from havin the lights closer. i'm starting the flora series in the morning when the light comes on. hopefully we'll get some explosive growth tomorrow!

Be sure to lower the dosage and even dilute it a bit to prevent nute burn, since really the seedling dont need much of anything.

yeah, i'm going to run a half dose for the first 2 weeks. i just checked them and one's got really serious brown spots on it. i'm assuming nute deficiency, which i will fix first thing in the morning with the new nutes. headin out of town for the weekend, will post new pics when i get back if there's been substantial new growth.
