Thats a hot setup dude. And what exactly does hydrogen peroxide do for the plant? I heard it prevents root rotting.

Hydrogen peroxide [HP] is H2O2, it is basically water with an extra oxygen molecule. We all know that oxygen is necessary in plant growth. Air pumps are used in the tanks to keep the water oxygenated. HP added to the water [I add 1 teaspoon per gallon] gives my plants almost twice the root mass. The roots before HP sometimes had a brown tint to them, now they are real white. I've never done any testing concerning the plant size with and without HP, but any stress the plants receive seems to pass quicker with it.

I better start using H2O2. Does anyone have a desing on making an aeroponic system? thanks.
Dimebag.
You can buy the aeroponic jets from any hydro store, they are about $1.50. Drill and tap the plastic pipe from the pump, equally spaceing them between your plants. 1 jet will do 4 plants. They look like little lawn sprinklers. I used 1/2 pvc pipe placed on the bottom of my ebb and flo tray, works great.

my pump came in the mail today its a via aqua 480, works great! Best 10 bucks i ever spent. Ebay is awesome.
Best most consistent results ive seen are from coco fibre pots.
run nutrient to waste, feeding couple of 1 or 2 ,minute feeds a day lights on.
Raced this set up against an recirc/ebbnflow type thing and it kicked.
didnt win on time, but gave most consistent results and is better in hot/cold situations time after time.
looking for information on the aeroflo 60 anyone ever use it or hear good or bad about it
I am in dirt now thinking about this system and need all the imput'
Best results are from NFT.
Best results with minimum effort are from DWC, which most people bubble.
I take that back. Best results are from fogging. This is difficult to do correctly and expensive. Most people claiming to be fogging are not doing in properly.
