Thank you Gypsy
I'm wondering if the mist inside the net pot is sufficient

__________________

I believe it is... but I have no basis to say that... as I have never built or operated a system like this before....

But my experience with DWC tells me that you do need that much water on the pot itself as long as there is some, and the media is absorbent enough to last between misting sessions...

Just my 2 cents...

Looks great!

Cut the bottom of the net pots if you think it interferes too much, if your going totally media-less aeroponic this will completely expose your roots. Just a suggestion.

I'm speechless that a 396gph pump sprays those that well, good work on the manifold setup.

so cutting the bottom of the net pot off would help nutes to go up the plant better?......seems like a good idea.....anyone try this yet?
my cloning is going well and my veg unit is doing extremely well also.....roots are going crazy and the plants are growing like crazy too
im not using the stinkbud nute regiment just yet since im still in the planning mode and had some nutes laying around

hey sog......do u think i can run a 3 post system into one of those tough type boxes?.....is it wide enough
and should i go with the 633 pump to run them?......thinking 3 5 foot posts with 8/9 units in each so 24/27 misters......rather go with more than push a 396

my area is 6.5 foot long and 3 foot wide......and i have access to change the res. with no problem......can use 5 foot posts and have the container and room to move still

you can fit 3 x 4 3/4" posts in the tough box
you need to figure roughly about 15-25gph per mister
to be in the proper operation range for a single mister
in my picture I'm pushing about 16.5gph per mister, and you can see the results
i think there's sufficient pressure from the 396GPH ECO to run up to 24-26 misters
beyond that you might want to go up to the 633GPH
that IMO is an over kill and will make a harsh mist inside the tube

I'm considering running 2 x 396GPH in parallel mode,
once i find a 0.5" one way valve ill be testing that setup
this way ill have a backup pump and possibly to increase the pressure
(i can still control pressure through the main valve if its to much)
