oh my god. this looks awesome. im subbing this thread. cant wate to see it during flowering
Almost 4 weeks of flower, but had abt 2 weeks in veg before that. But this was a very experimental first run, and the tray was filled with rooted clones of various ages....some had been in an EZ-clonner for over a month others just a few days. It also had 2 different mom's give cuttings so there is a difference in growth. Things will be more consistent next run.:thumbsup:Quote:

Also a shot of the AC/dehumidifier, and a pic of what every grow room should have....a place to sit and watch the grass grow.:thumbsup:
Lookin good dude... Im sure when you fine tune your table that you will get crazy good results! I just want to take a bite of that first pic! yummy...
So how stable are those with no medium? Do you have to be careful when tending them because of it? I really want to try that.
Hey there GetThisOrDie,
They are extremely stable using just 2" net pots and neoprene collars.
Keep in mind that my plants finish at 18" or less, but I have grown 4' plants in a NFT system using 3" net pots.
Biggest problem (if it really is a problem) is you can't move the plants after a couple of weeks since the roots start to intertwine.
Biggest plus is that having ultrasonic fog, that is sterile, it will sterilize the entire root zone.:D
Its a sweet setup indeed... After I move and get settled in im going to try and build an aeroponics setup. Also need to get familiar with ScOG. I like to look at your setup because it makes me think of the possibilities :)
A few more pics I took the other nite. It was "haircut time", a leaf trimming in preperation of getting cut down tonite.
The real pain is I havn't gotten around to finishing stuff I wanted to get done before the next run. Oh well I guess I get more done under the gun then if I wasn't.:D
damn OM! those are gorgeous! holy trich covered colas batman!!!
it sucks being without the 'net. i'm missing everything. i'm gonna have to save this one and red the whole thing. i guess you are liking aero/fog business?
how important to use an ultrasonic fogger?

I've been headed in the aero/fog direction for awhile, and it feels good to have this tray finally producing. I'll be very happy when I can stop my personal grow and stop using RW. That has been my goal, to grow with no media; no Pro-Mix to drag out of the grow area, no rockwool blocks to dispose of, etc.
Ultrasonic fog produces such a fine fog, that can be used directly by fine roots but the biggest advantage is the fog is sterile. It will sterilize the root zone so that no pathogens can survive there. In this first run I did have a problem going from rooted clones from a EZ-clonner to the aero/fog and I can solve that pretty easy. But I left a few clones that didn't make it just to see if root rot could spread. The root rot could only survive on the bottom of the neoprene collar abt 1/4" around the dead stem and less then that down. The rest of the root zone is gorgeous; no slime, no green grunge, no brown or discolored roots....just clean, white root mass. I'm lovin' it!
Just had a thought, maybe the grow lights help with the trichs! :D
what grow light is that OM? sorry i'm a little behind the power-curve at the moment. that doesn't look like a pyrocon. is that something new to the mix?Quote:

on a different note, would a regular fogger do any good at all? the reason i ask is because i happen to have one laying around and thought it would be fun to play with.
