I use to build and sell "snow guns". The simple way of explaining this is that you need a standard water hookup (garden hose) and an air compressor, able to hold 40 psi, my snow gun, and below 30 degree weather and you would get home made snow. It's based on the same principle that the professionals use in the ski resort snow makers, instead of over 200 nozzles my snowgun used one nozzle.
How does this fit into aeroponics? Perfectly in theory!
I have an idea to use the same air compressed system to oxidize the water just before it hits the plant (using industrial nozzles

And to place those underneath my plants (or to the side of my plants. he misters, when used inline with the air compressor should give the plant more then enough oxygen, but not cause the plant any harm. The spray nozzles do not SHOOT the water out, the merely mist the plant at a very high rate.
So, what's everyone's take on this?
has anyone ever tried this before?
Update: I will be trying this (after Christmas due to money) on a small scale of maybe one or two plants.
The use of a large scale version of this (100-200) plants would be for my future ideas with vegetable gardens (i sell to farmers markets an what not)
