Aerogrow....for weed??????????

Would this thing work for growing?

Home Of The AeroGarden From AeroGrow International ::: 1-800-GROW NOW (http://www.aerogrow.com/)

What you guys think?

[Tomthehippie]

it would but only for veg really. you might be able to get away using Low-rider or some kind of cloned LST plant. :)

its to small for a compleate grow. only 21" tall at full hight. i dont think it would work

[Dr.Hashman]

It would work for a lowryder, 12-16" average. I would rather spend that $150 making a large aeroponic chamber. You could make one out of a 30 gallon rubbermaid tub/buy the seeds/and buy the lights for $150. I wouldn't waste my money on it, it also doesn't put out enough lumens.

I have plants growing in an Aerogrow right now. I removed the existing seeds and transferred small sprouts to the seed pods. I recommend using your own nutrient solution. I tried to use the nutes that came with the seed kit, but my timing wasn't quite right. I encountered what I believe to be a Magnesium deficiency and immediately replaced the solution with my own. They are doing very well now.

The above posts are correct. The Aerogrow is too small for a complete grow. I decided to try it because I needed something for growing small plants vegetatively with little maintenance. I'm planning to move my plants to a bubbler system + HPS light for flowering.

Standby for pics...

Here are photos of plants in an AeroGarden. 24 days from seed and 16 days in the AeroGarden.

I had what I believe to be a nutrient problem and fixed it by using nutes that did not come with the AeroGarden seed kit. Affected plants are recovering...

I plan to move these to a cabinet for flowering. I'll be watching the roots closely to make sure that I can get them out safely.

Interesting ... they don't look great, but certainly not awful.

Not enough room. Not enough light. Those plants will not survive in that thing.

All the aerogrow is is a small hydroponic system. You'de be better off building your own for 150 dollars. Head on up to the hardware store with 150 dollars and you can make one hell of a hydro system if you know what you're doing.

In my opinion any ways.

[Mista Sparkle]

Agreed...and thanks for the comments. I think they would look better if I would have used my own nutes from the start. I'll be moving them to my cabinet as soon as I receive my new ventilation fan.

ok so i got one of these from my work and planted some seeds in the other day...this is my third grow, first hydro and like everybody else says the lights are too small, but what do you think about adding my own lights (left over from a prior grow) that should solve that problem, if you get more light is it really that bad of a system? i'd think that one hydro setup is as good as the next (im not talking about passive wick). other than the lights why are the downsides?

Now that I see that thing- seven plant sites- that res is simply WAY too small. Sorry. Maybe you could use it to root clones in instead, and then put them in a real system.
