I'm still in progress drizzy, but i'll let ya know!!

@morris, so you're saying having a smaller pvc made higher water pressure? do you think a more powerful pump could have the same effect?

i'm growing 14 clones of Green Crack and 1 clone of UK Cheese in a GH drip bucket beside them. I'll let you know on the harvest when they're done. I'm expecting 1-1.5 lbs.

for your tub a 250gph or even that 396 are perfect. smaller pvc will actually maximize a smaller pump, basically like a bottleneck

Default Nice Work!
Hey Mitus I love your DIY aero setup Im trying to put something similar together myself but Im having a hell of time finding a proper tub for my babies. I see your using a Toughbox but I cant find one anywhere. Do they sell them on the web at all? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've seen them at OSH and I believe Home Depot has them as well. I was thinking about using those next time.

Mitus, Do you know the dimensions for the toughboxes you have?

31" x 21" & 15" tall (give or take a half inch either way)

I've seen them at Home Depot, Osh, and just recently at Lowes.

Lightbulb Aero/NFT project
I'm working on a big/little side project . Inspired by my buddy GoHydro. Basically its four 3 1/2 foot pieces of 6" PVC. They are all laying parallel to eachother with elbows that join together into one 2" pvc, which drains out the side of the 4'x4' growtent, into the res. The water is supplied by sprayers that are punched through the top of the PVC next to the netcups. So the water sprays the roots and runs back down the pvc, out the elbow, into the 2" pvc, which drains back into the res, and is repumped back into all the sprayers and follows the same process again.

So far i've set up my tent, built the frame for the grow chambers, i've cut the 3 & 1/2 foot grow chambers from the 6" PVC and i've glued the elbows to them. the other end is covered by a rubber endcap which is removable with a screwdriver.

The first 3 pics are of GoHydro's system (where i got my idea from). The last couple are of my progress so far.

may i make a suggestion, just for where i am, i used the "mogie" method and its basically same unit, you can find it in DIY section of riu, anyway my main reason for going fencpost is i only found small amount of 6inch PVC and it was shedule 40, $50 for a 10' and the caps were 30bucks each cus they are rare so i went with 4inch PVC and had great results, take it from a guy who built 2 differenct styles of system, the square fencepost hold more volume for roots and are easy to keep up right, round gully units like these need to be paid good attention to when fastening down, fence posts need no fastening, thos drainage elbows if available is 6" must be very pricey, they are around $20 for 4", performance wise they are certainly equals, but it cost me 4 times asmuch than fencepost method, lowes has 7' and 98" for $18 and $23, 4inch pvc at home depot is $9 for 10', also i know i hit on the plants likeing to tip cus of the curvature, but since the plants site or hole you cut out is also on a curve, the plant stem and all will want to lean over, as compared to the flat side of the posts, thank you for letting me voice my opion on your thread bro

looks good..the other one seems to have a ton of tubing...all you really need is one hose inthe middle of each then run your sprayers from spinder lines..
