Yep, more like 18" to 2 feet, I do it every 2 weeks when I clean and change the res.
why?: because I don't want the roots rotting in the res.
sorry ive never tryed low pressure aeroponics before. just air atomizing.
i see, that could be a problem. you should add a floating silk screen above your water level. then you wouldnt need to cut all those valuable roots off
otherwise try adding a residual of 1-3ppm clorine, or just keeping your water moving.

I have not seen any adverse effect cutting the roots. They grow regardless, and I take my res completely away every two weeks and wash it out before refilling with fresh water and new nut solution. If I didn't cut the roots they would be laying on the concrete floor when I clean the res. I am pretty sure I am better off just trimming them.

Check out my journal in my signature, it really doesn't seem as though it has hurt the plants by cutting the roots every two weeks.sorry ive never tryed low pressure aeroponics before. just air atomizing.
