Here is the continuation in my series where that I am attempting to not purchase any super special pre-built growing systems.

I will update later but here are some long overdue pictures from quite a while ago:

Parts for the Aeroponic system:




Some tomatoes...


The cat checking on the tomatoes...


More updates later when I'm done.

Here are some photos of progress...

I know I have been keeping you guys waiting on progress!


A completed (but not glued) Aeroponic chamber row...


Sprayer lines outside the chamber.


A view inside the Aeroponic chamber.


A look down the sprayer line.

All red sprayers will spray 360*.


There are 180* blue sprayers on the ends of the line.

Reservoir accessories.


Modified water pump, heater, temp sensor and air stone.


Closer view of temp sensor and water level.

I modified my water pump, look for the one that says "Optional inline use" on the box. Take the front off and screw in the part that has a flat adjustable blade. Then place the filter bag over that end and zip tie it on. Adjust the suction blade towards the bottom of the bucket. It will pull in through the filter bag and keep the pump in good shape.

Try to place the pump so that the water goes up the middle of the reservoir.

I have 42 sprayers and decided to get a 396GPH pump.

I have a 200W heater and an air pump to oxygenate the solution.

The clear tube on the front is for reservoir level indicator.

I have to drill 3" holes in the lid for the aero chambers to return solution to the reservoir.

Drilling in this PVC with a large hole saw is a real pain in the ass.

I have a trash can that is going to sit outside the HOMEbox XL and it will be plumbed over to the reservoir at a level above the minimum level for the pump. That way I can always add water or nutes from outside the tent and never have to disturb the inside or worry about if the res is full or empty and the PPM and pH levels.
