hey guys i am brand new to this site especially in posting things.. i hope i am posting this in right place if not where and how do i post a new thread.. anyways heres the story.. i got a couple aeroponic setups with 6 holes for 3 inch pots and clay pebbles i have 2 mother plants one is blueberry and one is some other kind of sixty day.. (both mom's are at least 5 feet big plenty of clones to come) i have 2 rooms one os the flowering room (although its setup for veg now) and the other is a closet i use for cloning and for eventually the mom's) anyways i have a ez grow aero cloner 30 site and i have a flouro on that making clones is not a problem really) i have also i 200 watt cfl full spectrum ready to go when i feel its neccessary for the mom';s to be moved under them, until then the moms are in the same room with my setup which happens to be under a 1000 watt hps.. the cycle sprayers are on a timer that i have going with a 10 min spray on and a 40 min spray off i was at 10 seconds on and 5 min off but i felt that wasn't doing enough anyways the room is lined with mylar and the girls are 15 days old.. its my first aeroponic grow and i am learning by experience.. i keep the room at a solid 78 or less and the ater is usually between 65-75 degrees ph is no higher then 6.5 and no lower then 5.5 sounds good so far right.. well my question is why do i feel like they aren't moving fast enough? they got nice roots and all but they can't be ready for flower can they they not that big( i grew in soil a ouple times before so maybe i am comparing apples to oj) here is some pics they speak for themselves9i can take pics anytime i want its not a problem) help me any advice on when is proper to flower and or how tall they should be at day 15?hey john couple more questions for u..
how tall should my plants be getting? i feel like they aren't moving fast enough they been in the setup for near 15 days and they don't look big enough o flower.. i guess my question is how fast should these girls be growing or how soon can i flower.. the roots are nice and long , long enough to hang in water although i fixed that i decided to wrap them up in the clay pebbles and let them hang when they wanna, instead of making them do it when they not ready... the ph is sitting nice at no higher then 6.5 and i change the water out once per week... the temp of the water is between 65-75.. i freeze 2 liter bottles and place them into the system also i covered the top part with mylar and cut holes in it for the net pots it keeps the system cooler by a few degrees.. i feel like they should be exploding and tall with lots of shoots and branches but they not.. heres some pics(ps i added a pump that has a couple air stones connected to oxygenate the water a lil just incase)hey john couple more questions for u..

you can find the master garden kits online, or i think at target or where ever they sell aerogardens, look in some hydro stores, you need the air stone to oxygenate the water for the roots
thanks sicc for the advce.
I jusyt added a 8 inc airstone to the resivor with pump hooked up. I am looking into nutrients and am considering either the foxfarm trio or humboldt nutes... has anyone had experience using these in the ag. also I haveread that you want to use hlf the required ammt of nute to water to avid burning.. is this true? I'm going to be starting with clones if that matters. thank again. once I get my nutes figuredout will start a journal.

try here man, really good thread
https://www.rollitup.org/dwc-bubbleponics/141252-dwc-grow-club.html
When switching to FoxFarm nutes instead of the default AG tabs, should I flush for a couple days with plain water inbetween, or just empty the res and pour in the new mix?
For reference purposes, FoxFarm Grow Big suggests 2 teaspoons per gallon. The AG reservoir is approx a gallon, maybe a little less because of all the junk in there(roots, pump, airstones, etc). Also, I will start at 1/2 strength, using 1 teaspoon for 100 Ounces of water (a gallon is 128oz)

yeah, you're absolutely right...but I am learning my lesson.
anyway, i'll try an ionizer, thanks,
any ionizor recommendations?
