Hi all,
can you please suggest me me how long seconds and how many times per day should water a seed that has just germinated ?

The pump is a normal pump and at the moment the seed is inside an Eazy Plug.
As far as I know I don't need a substrate...right ?

Thank you.

There going to need to know what you're growing in. Like rockwool, Coco or hydroton. Then you'll get some better answers. Best of luck with the new garden.

At the moment i have an EzPlug where the tiny plant is inside, a root is coming out below.
Do i really need rockwool/coco/hydroton for the future ?

I have seen setups where the roots are fully naked to absorb the water

luca here not realising plants can grow in 8 types of medium and expecting us to give him perfect timing for an imaginary medium and potsize....

i told you every 1 minute for 15 seconds. you wait 1 minute than you spray for 15 seconds then wait for 1 minute and spray for 15 seconds.
i wasn't going to use any substrate because i have readed it's possible to grow without it as well.

So do you recommend any substrate?

with no substrate airoponics considering you posted in airoponics. means you have a high pressure pump or low pressure and roots will hang in air and you will mist them every minute for 15 seconds. you can try fogponics but from my experience that asian fogger boils water after some time... maybe i had a shitty one.

if you want substrate you can go classic hydroponic like dwc make water your substrate or go one step over coco its like a spounge no nutes in it basicly hydro but not you water a few times a day. then you can mix coco with dirt water every few days. and then normal dirt....

Just to be clear i have bought this aeroponic system


so i suppose to have a low pressure pump, nothing of special

Depends you can’t just have them hang there like you said. You need something to grow in either that be hydroponics or some type of medium. Probably do a little research on one of them easiest way to start is probably soil or some type of medium.

yea but where do you keep your nutes and where do the nutes go after spray?
just looking at the picture it looks like a top feed dwc with extra steps XD
