Oops disregard that last... lol I'm such a spazz before my 4th cup of coffee...
It's not a strain, but keeping your plant small through pruning and training is a good cramped-space option.

Thanks, to me this is very encouraging news. I've had this idea about an aquarium, the 30 - 40 gallon size. At this point though I'm still reading, searching and digging to get myself at least somewhat of a rough process to follow.

I think an aquarium is a less than ideal grow chamber. You can use an upside-down aquarium as a clone dome though in a pinch, lol~

The material, rather than the size, is the issue. Something sturdy and lightproof is the best way to go, and a 'rubbermaid' or equivalent bin is much easier to work with, since you can cut holes in it for exhaust and modify the HECK outta the thing!

Yea, I had wondered off and found something utilizing an a quarium Marijuana Hydroponics Systems . Space here is very limited. No closet to sacrifice, and no basement. I'm going to file that clone dome method away though

Yeah I finally get to use my dremel.

I've seen some awesome growth since I started this thread; my larger plant has really exploded! I've added some pics below. Please read on to the next post (it's just down yonder).

Now... on to my "special" plant. The other little guy has a ways to go before it's ready to bud (if it's actually capable of doing so.) I mean... this plant looks like it has down syndrome or some other horrible genetic malformity, and I really don't know what to do with it. The leaves are growing, but they're doing so in the most random, hodge-podge way I've ever seen! The baby leaves at the top look like they might actually come in normally, but I'm not holding my breath. This one has one long root (which has branched out fairly well) but that's it. It looks life its trying, so maybe I should give it another chance. Check it out for yourself... Oh, and btw, it has a siamese leaf in one of the two pictures! one lobe with two points!

I just got an aerogarden as well, and planted 3 seeds in 2 different pods.

I was wonderin if i should have the light on 12/12 or start with something like 18/6?

[stinkyattic]

Start on 18/6 or 24/0 from seed. 12/12 from start is unnecessarily stressful to the young plant.

cool, thanks....I guess Ill have to take out the tomato plants I started, or will it be ok for them after 2 weeks to stay on 18/6 or 24/0?
