My Aeroponics System week 1

this is the aeroponics system i made to carry out the tests for my final paper in college, it took alot to put it together because there are no hydroponic stores around where i live, but i think it turned out well

misters need to be 50 micron droplet size or less to be true aeroponics

[SpidermanRun]

@corysgood88 oh well. . . . when the larger drops splatter they break into 50 micron droplets. . . . :-)

you gotta pump oxgen into the water..go to an aquarium store.....get a couple air pumps ...and those bubbler things....like for fish tanks....they need lots of oxegenated water.....i cant spell today

[SpidermanRun]

@freeman2545 There ARE air stones in this sytem ! The water IS NOWHERE near the cups. . . why are you telling me thins that im already doing . . seriously?!?

[SpidermanRun]

@maslabud i just chose to use seeds, thats it, it wasnt about seed plants, i just wanted quite down the person talking about clones. . . clones this and clones that, whatever, i know the diff. . . no need to throw a word around just to try and one up me :-. .  hehe besides thers only one plant i use cloning for :-)

Don't you just love the D-bags with nothing better to do than dump on your system?

Oh, and corysgood88, here is the definition of Aeroponics:

aeroponics [‚er·ə′pän·iks]

(agriculture)

The practice of growing plants without soil while suspended in air; a nutrient and water solution is sprayed on the roots and allowed to drain off to be discarded or recycled.

Notice that droplet size is never mentioned. What is it with you jagoffs?

Go back to your gaming and leave the growing to others.

nice work,the ones in soil need the lights raised or they will get burnt;again nice set up.

@SpidermanRun sorry dude....did you fix the problem...what did you do to fix it...teach me

[SpidermanRun]

@210482fmj that doesnt make any sense. . . the point of this is for the inside of this sytem to be very humid and moist. . if i put a vent in. . All that would do is evaporate most of my water, which would build up salts, and i would have to switch the solutions more often. . . soooo. . . none of that is helpful advice. . . .

[freeman2545]

deep well systems have proven to be the most productive type of system...if you can apply mist type sprayers...in the well......that is the best.....

[freeman2545]

dont fill the water up to the cups....the roots need to hang in the air...before they reach the nutrient source....you can put too much water in...and drown them...drowning plants...and plants that are needing water...both show the same effects....hard to tell what to do ..sometimes...hydro growing is an art....you will figure it out
