I am gonna use this for fogging, not sure what water size of particle it produces. Misting because its easier to setup and I think it ll be faster and easier absorbed by roots then just regular sprinklers. Cant control this one preciselly, just timing and the only thing I can control more pricise is speed of DC fan, so the fog would stay in bucket longer (or I could do timing for DC fan too same as fogger). Water will eventually condensate in bucket and will get to drainage res. Having fog in bucket whole day I ve read isnt very optimal for roots as they need also air, it might get plant into overwatered phase. So wonder about the cycles, try and error but yes will get to right setup eventually, hopefully :)Prečo zahmlievate korene? Nie je to také vyberavé?
1). Hmla celý deň. Nebolí. Časovač budete vždy vytáčať podľa veľkosti rastliny.
2) je to jedinečné nastavenie hmly. Prídete na to.
3) závisí od konštrukcie hrotu hmly. Znížte tlak vstupnej vody. V závislosti od hrotu, ktorý nemusí fungovať s vašou konštrukciou trysky.
Yes, the power outage is also one of my concern but it doesnt occur like at all... In case of a longer planned power outage I am not prepared. Would have to change into kratky method. Should be easy to fix with water ventil on tube used for drainage of water so water would stay in buckets.Did you think about power outage? ~3h without power on aeroponics/foggerponics and you will have big time problems.
Never did any of those setups neither helped anyone doing those setups,
But I hear it's growth is even more explosive than rdwc if done properly.
Post a journal about this experience I would love to follow it.
Thats how its supposed to look like based on what I ve read, fluffy roots but pure white colour. Dont u use plastic tank? Yes, I am gonna test just with one bucket first and will see, especially the leaking might occur, so need to use right steps and materials. Had a lot of problem with that in my octopots. Easy diagram... water from bucket and fog from green tank.I only ran HP aeroponic on one grow..it was not cannabis. The root structure was incredibly different than what I observed with DWC. Think of a fluffy root cloud. I will try it again. I have to wonder if my pressure holding tank is still safe. I made the mistake of not evacuating and drying it before storage. It could be a painful experience, literally, to find out the rust has weakened the walls. I wish you success Kamisama. I think the secret to success, is try something until you decide that there is something better to try. When I set up the HP aero..i built one section at time. I am not quite following your diagram to where i can understand it completely just yet. I will keep watching and learning.
I plan to use root control disc from autopot to prevent roots growing in hose that ll be connected from bottom of bucket. Hopefully it ll drain fast throught it. Dont wanna cut roots if possible.This thread gave me the incentive to get out of my chair and poke around the pole barn. I found the bucket very quickly...looks like it needs a bit of cleaning. I looked back at my pictures.This was used once in winter of 2017-2018. I started with just a 13 gallon container but the roots wanted to clog the drain line. My solution was to cut the bottom out and glue silk screen on it. It then nestled in the 8 gallon for drainage back to the reservoir.

I couldn't find a good picture of the final cloud of roots. I did find a picture of the hairs starting to form

It will take me awhile to remember what I did and why I did it...getting too old to remember something from nearly 6 years ago. Your picture of the fogger unit, cleared up your diagram in my mind quite a bit. I can understand the basic principle that you are trying to achieve now.
Did you even need a pressure tank? I d use only a decend pump with a timer and possibly some water lvl sensor.I found more components. Fortunately they appear to have landed in about the same zone as each other. This was the pump and pressure tank. The tank is metal with a diaphragm that holds the pressure nutrient solution. This was so the pump does not need to turn on and off for a second at a time. I will have to look back at my mostly missing notes to see the actual time interval that I eventually settled on. I have to wonder, I see that the tank pressure gauge is reading 130 psi after pulling the tank out of storage 5+ years, There is no way that can be accurate..can it be?

What PSI do u use? I ve read 80PSI is ok... so basically a pump that turns on at 80PS and turns off t 100PSI.I found more components.
