Aeroponic's, HATCH Style

Miss Stinky, HYWT'SUP?!!!!, Thank you. You hit the Nail on the Head with one Smack!!!!HEHE......Later

Nice set up. Im in the middle of building an aeroponic set up myself.

How does your 1/4" tubing attach to the 1/2" pvc exactly? Ive been using brass fittings but they are expensive and it takes a couple to go from 1/2" to a 1/4" hose. Yours looks like the 1/4" tubing hooks right into some pvc. It look much less expensive, are they leakproof?

Yes they are leakproof!!
Look at the first group of pic's, click on the last pic. They are a 3/4" cap & I drill a 1/8" hole tap/thread chaser & screw the threaded base of the riser's in. Ya this is alot less expensive than brass.
Hope that help's??......Good Luck........Later

Thanks man, I must've missed that picture the first time through.

Where do you find the risers at, and what are they called?

Here is some stuff I use, riser, mister, filter's,basket's,neopren's.

More.

Where I get my stuff.

I had it figured some-where how much each Pod & all the plumbing, pvc fitting's, 7 mister's & riser's in each one, Was about $24.oo each complete Pod.

Hope that help's.

Hey Hatch I really like your setup, and it has inspired me to build one of my own. I have a few questions though.

1.What do you use as a reservoir, and what kind of hose do you use?

2.What kind of pump is that and whats the PSI or GPH on it??

3.How many gallons of water does the system need?

4. Whats your pvc tube size? 1/2 inch?

I looked at Lowes, and I think I can build the system for $120 which is reasonable. Keep up the good works!!!

A-1.) They are 20gal. & 30gal Res. I got them at the Hydro Store. The Hose is 3/4 nylon braded clear Hose. You can get at Lowe's.

A-2.) Hydo-Farm, & Mister are the name Brand I have, They are 1,400 GPH, They make a awesome mist.

A-3.)That kind of up to what, where, & when, in as how many Pod's, Plant's, ect...ect....

A-4.) I use 3/4, there are alot of fitting's that have Thread's, that work great, & I don't have to reduce up or down.

I think from container to mister's, working, each of My Pod's are about $25.00.

Thank's for Hanging out!!!!!:jointsmile::jointsmile:
