  • I'm anxious to see your DIY truaero kit video.

  • Hey dude. Awesome idea. Got any root pics? Get many sales lately?

  • yeah i would imagine the motor is noisy, i know my dremmel is, but i bet the brushless are way more quiet, i ws looking at the nutrimist systems, but its way expensive, but they sell their teflon transducer discs for about 6.00 they can be put in a regular mist maker i think ,i want to build my own fogger, but cant find cheap source of ultrasonic atomizing transducers, this russian guy has a tut on here ans says he gets them for $2 but i dont know where, and im having trouble understanding his

  • what is it? a dremmel with a grinding stone bit on it? or another fast motor ,perhaps one for a toy plane?

  • @bulletproof2353 This is a high rpm inline motor such as those found in dremmels, 20k-40k rpm. I have also worked with some brushless motors even though cost is more, end product is better. One key piece is the delivery of the water to the rotary bit to make sure its fully atomized.

  • i have added a waterproof fan to my growth chamber so i can ventilate if need be. it is quite a smart idea as now i can extract or blow air into my growth chamber. it help me keep the roots cool

  • DIY of the Repeat Timer used in kit is now finished, you can see here, check my other videos. Pump and Atomizer unit DIY video coming next. Thank you for your patience! Please subscribe.

  • @GrowColt I cant wait to try this out! Thank you!

  • It is not on ebay, so can you tell me where I can find it ?

    Thank you

  • @madelainejulien I stopped building them for the moment, I will offer them soon again about the same time I produce a DIY video to make one yourself if you have tools and wanted too.

  • My aero uses the same droplet size range, 90% are between 30um-80um. I guess your root structure is similar to mine. Do you have any pics of the roots?

  • This is the most ingenious aeroponic system. This needs to go on Instructables

  • thats a nice system you have there do u know the micron size of the mist??

  • Heh, I just seen your vid. NIce DIY, I think I get how this works. I'll try building one and post it up on youtube. probably, some 2" pvc pipe... cap... holes for motor ventilation... water pump to the rotating disc.... centrifugal or rotary atomization I believe this is called... I guess the trick is really getting the right rpm. alright, thank you much.

  • That’s a really cool system! How many plants can actually be grown using that system? Is this only available in eBay?

  • @hydroplanting You can grow as many plants that can be fitted into your tote, the largest one we have outfitted was the 49 gal Rubbermaid, 4x2. You can control the amount of mist generated via the grow timer and pump output. The better setup is to mist light and mist often. If your roots are fuzzy than you got the right setup. Currently we only have eBay set up for sells, we have a web page in the mix soon to be our mother site!

  • how does this work is the disk spinning??plz explain

  • Yes, the disc is moving at 30,000rpm, water makes contact with the disc and is instantly transformed to a mist. You will notice that the roots growing in the system have many hairs on them being they are highly oxygenated and moist, not soaked as in a FAG (fake aero grow) system.

  • We can also be reached at GrowColt@gmail.com for any inquiries or questions.
