Default Aeroponics Pump U Up
permalink
hey,

I have been running an aeroponic system for a long time and recently realized that my pump runs a significant electricity chunk. I have on a timer to come on every other 30 mins right now, but wondering can I mebe run every other hour or less even? I feel I may be endangering roots dangling down there too long w/out de waters. Any thoughts? I really hate electricity companies btw

spend $80 and get an aeroponic timer, 4 minutes off, one minute on. It's on 20% of the time, vs. yours being on 50% of the time.
