I am also using the same aeroponics for my clones and I do have to say it rocks! U can buy 1 pre made but they sell for 400-800 pending on the size. and my was made for 30.00 but I alrady had the pump. I am currently growing my mothers in soil and they are not doing the greatest, but my SOG is hydro and just booming with pure pleasure. So on that note I am looking to start new mother's in A DWC system. Does anybody have some advice on that?

My flower room is right next to my dryer... I am seriously considering getting one of these that Stink recommended forever ago

http://www.plantlightinghydroponics....ox-p-1397.html

The 240's will use less current==less heat==savings and safety. Think of it like removing an invisible 50w heater who needs it!

EDIT: hah! Look what I just found. DIY plans for a similar dryer cord lighting controller I won't recommend this for most of you, but I'm hooked Just need to incorporate some 120v plugs somehow.
thanks for the link...helped me find a dual electronic ballast, 240v, now i can have 2 ballasts and 4 lights! Sweet! +rep!

Use Stinks system and don't worry about mothers!

I am also doing the SOG as he is but mine are on a 2 week cycle! he says he takes his clones from his veg plant's (would he be saying his mothers)? Is DWC/aeroponics that nicer than soil for the veg stage? My clones just jam with the aeroponics cloner that I made...... Just how does it work for A main sys.?

I would sugest reading the whole thread.
he has no mother plants, just cuts clones from his plants in veg before he puts them to flower.
You should get a recylcle timer for the pump. Works way better and is a must for TRUE aeroponics. to give air time hense the name AEROponics.

Wow! 4-5 days of reading and I'm finally to the end (for now). I hope I can do justice to the Stink Bud U alumni! Getting ready to build an SB 2009. I have been looking for a system to grow great all organic and I have found it. Thank you Stink Bud!

A question about elec if anyone has a suggestion...I am wanting to set up a room with 240v. I have a dryer outlet about 10 feet away. Can I put a junction box in line before the dryer outlet then run romex to my room? Dryer is gas so outlet is not used. I would like to keep it however in case I sell the house later. Any suggestions, comments appreciated...Thx

gas dryer , cool , it will work fine. The breaker should allready be a 30amp or higher allready at that box. could probly vent into your dryer vent if you put one way flapper/draft blocker things in so it didnt blow air back into the dryer.

Thanks, not sure about the venting though. Will probably cut a vent hole in the outside wall or go into the attic or I can actually vent under the house which would probably be easiest since there is already an access hole from my grow room (part of garage).

here you go. If i were you this would be ideal since its only 10ft away. This setup will cost you less the $50 and a cheap timer will work perfectly to run your light. Instead of the dryer plug i would buy 12 to 14 ft of 8 to 10 gauge wire with a dryer type of plug to make it long enough to bring the box into your room. or of course if you dont need this timer setup i would think you could get away with mounting a small curcuit box in your room setup for 240 and then run the load lines back to your dryer outlet. Please dont use anything smaller, for wire size at least 10 gauge, then what is rated for the amount of amps you will be pulling. now i'm not a licensed sparky but beleive me when i tell you that i have ran and wired a good portion of my home city working directly with a few master electrician with about 100 years experiance between them. with that said i still run back and ask questions when i dont for sure know the answer so maybe Andy will jump in here or someone else who knows for sure.

Damm sorry people i forgot the link for what i was talking about that was posted from someone else at the top of page. so here ya go http://www.hydroponics.net/learn/gro...controller.asp
