Looks nice! How does the plant hold it self up once bud grow?And what about the roots are they going to pile up underneath the pot?

Ya I have 8 jock horrors growing in a similar setup except I bout mine from general hydroponics but aero is the best way to grow iv seen so far my 8 plants were topped at 5' at start of flower and still grew to 7'+ all in under 2 months and I even had one Mexican brick weed plant growing in there and it took off lik crazy(got killed from falling light) it sucked cuz the day after I found out it was female was was when it got killed

When they get too heavy use a piece of wire attach one end to the wall behind the plant then loop it around branch then attach that piece to the wall as well

none at all that i know of any ways kinda hard to get down into it once you have plants unles you have more room. I built it for easy maintenance but i didnt factor in room size i was looking more towards how sweet 5 plants would look lined up along opposite walls and i was right it looks awesome.. i actually have been keepin some what of a journal on what i have been doing like i said i will be adding more pics very soon

Nice looking plants, it looks like your pipe is on the floor.. how does the water drain? I have almost same setup and nutes, but I am using T5's for the veg.



I have had to build my room two feet up from the floor for the pipe to drain, as a result my plants need to stay short. where is your reservoir?

No its not on the floor i made a pvc pipe stand for the 6 inch tubes to sit on, my rezzy,s are outside of the room i have my drain pipes running through my wall. how is it working so far for you my first aero grow is going very well right now i am 3 to 5 weeks away from finishing and the growth has been rapid

I almost did that with my res, but my pump makes a bit to much noise.. had to put it in the room to shut it up.

Ya aero kicks butt never seen such thick stems, only 3 weeks from seed but things are going good
