39 Aeroponic Pepper UPDATE (DAY 63)

The 39 peppers have been in the aeroponic rails for 63 days and are doing great. In this video I show fruiting, long reach buzz pollination, and general info on my grow. Please subscribe and comment. Thanks for Watching.

how did you pollinate the peppers if they are too far out of reach?

Time to make another update! I just discovered you and really enjoyed spending the afternoon looking at your videos.

hey im growing peppers as well with a outdoor hydroponics dwc system and when my peppers bud and flower, right before the fruit forms, it falls off! do you know what i need or lack

some people seem to think plants seem to grow better with less nutrient problems in media based hydro systems like ebb and flow or rockwool dripper systems. it seems the aeroponic systems do have issues due to not having any growing media. some plants seem happier with less nutrient issues in a media based system. its worth experiemnting with both and seeing if the aero systems do present issues from not having any grow media. in nature plants roots always have something so its different

I love your Aero build. I am new to Hydroponics. When you have an Aero system providing for several different plants how do you prevent cross pollenation? I would love to build this but with any Hydro system I have been trying to find a solution to cross pollenation. Any tips would be great!

Nice. I Built a similar aero/nft rail system and have some tomatoes in it right now outside on my back deck. Started off rough but are doing really well now. Check em out. Cant see the Aero unit because I have it somewhat insulated from the direct sun but there is a picture of it on my page. Planing on doing peppers in it next season and doing my tomatoes in DWC buckets.

About your EC level issues, in my own personal experience and from reading around on various forums, i've determined that most peppers really don't like high PPMs at all. In most of the successful grow logs i've seen, a lot of people use 400-600ppm through the entire grow from start to finish. The tricky part is getting enough calcium at those lower PMs. What's worked for me lately is doing about 400ppm of nutrients, and 100ppm of cal/mag. That's been the magic number for me in hydro.

Anyway to get or purchase a parts and material list for the setup or a schematic. Just finished buildout of growroom in warehouse and would love to try the system. Thanks Nick

Hello again. I watched them all. Aeroponics is the way to go. I dirt farm and would like to duplicate your system. Wow talk about yeild. Could I get a materials list and what hole saw sizes I would need? feel free to email or call me grandpabaugh@yahoo.com or 701-430-3648 Thanks for the great videos.
