Aerogarden Autoflowers

[kbfl0912]

This is Auto AK47 at 5 1/2 weeks.....in an aerogarden. Someone gave it to me as a gift and figured I try it out. This is the only female out of four seeds. This plant is 5 1/2 weeks from seed. Started flowering about 1 1/2 weeks ago. I am surprised at how healthy it is. The roots are extremely healthy also. I have kept the lighting at 20/4 the entire grow. Added an airstone to the resevoir and am using Advanced Nutrients. Anyway, just an experiment to see if the AG would grow something. I am actually impressed so far, I mean for a tabletop grow. We'll see what happens.

Thanks, I think it looks good for 5 1/2 weeks too, but I haven't ever grown an autoflowering strain, so I'm not sure what they are suppposed to look like at that age. And, I have never grown in anything but soil. Supposedly from seed to harvest in 10 weeks. We shall see...

It is the Pro 200. I think that is the only one with three cfl's. It came w/ it's own nutes, but I went with AN instead.

Nice, my dad got that exact one on xmas. Pretty impressive I gotta show him those pics.

please keep this updated! Will definetly buy this just for a mini personal grow.

Well, wait before you buy. I've got 4 weeks left, let's see if will produce anything. I don't think this Auto AK47 produces a whole lot anyway. I have better lights, but since this is just an experiment, I am going to just use the lights that came with it...and a couple side lights. Here's some pics from today. Tomorrow they will be 6 weeks from seed. Bottom pic is of the root system. The reservoir is only 1 gallon.

By the way, the holes are covered up with golf balls. They fit perfectly to block out light.

very impressive!

Here are some updated pics. They are about 6 weeks from seed. They have the claw leaf thing going on. What causes that?

I am growing a lowlife AK-47/Blueberry cross under 54 watts of LED lighting, I've gotten good results, but nowhere near yours, it appears my female is light limited. So-o-o I think I'd like
to copy your setup! What about your secondary lighting, how many watts, and what color? Do you do anything else? I usually manually "mist" mine with a hand-held sprayer.

BTW, I chose the AK-47/Blueberry because it's supposed to only grow to half the height of the AK-47 Autoflower, which is better suited for my 54 watt LED grow

Cheers!

I just finished lowrider2 . You will like the smoke. By the looks of yours, your do pretty well yield wise too. Your going into the grow like crazy stage. It will be fun the watch. Good luck.

Thanks! I will post updated pics tomorrow.

I don't do anything else. No misting or anything. I just change the resevoir once weekly, use Advanced Nutrients, added an air stone to the res and that's it....it's been very easy.

I really just wanted to see if the AG would take it to maturity and yield an OK amount. I have seen lots of threads started with the use of the AeroGarden, but never saw any of them complete. So, we'll see. So far so good. New pics tomorrow.

What size and color was your second CFL light? How do you introduce plants to the aerogarden, it looks like they come with small plastic capsules for vegetables, do you
put seeds or after they germinate, how exactly. Also the Aerogarden has some sort of settings for 'plant type', I'm guessing they don't have a cannabis setting which one do you use? Sorry for asking so much, but your results are incredible, worthy of emulation!
