new aero grow
hiya folks i've just made an aeroponic system and it works brill, should have done it years ago. been with soil for so long, the results with this system is so much faster. can't believe the results on the roots in a matter of a few days, the roots are already about 4-5 inches long and theres masses of them!
Just a few questions tho, the water temp is sitting at about 80deg f, what would be the ideal temp for this setup? got a 600w and 250w lights in room plus 3 x2 strip fluoros for other plants at 70watts each. got extraction fan and blower in room plus got a small fan at bottom of aero tank blowing cool air but temp wont' really go down any further.
Also, as a wee experiment i took a cutting and just stuck it in the aero system thru the mylar and its sitting pretty will send pics in when i get a chance. I'm sticking with this system now anyway, don't think i'll go back to soil after the results i'm seeing.
Next question, anyone else that uses an aero system, how long in total do the grows normally take ie from start of veg to end of flower as it seems pretty quick, when would be the ideal time to switch from veg to flower?
Also has anyone had any probs with the roots getting so big that they interfere with the misters/sprayers? the depth of the tank i'm using is about 750mm. The misters are sitting at about 400mm just above water res level, so i have about 300mm room for the roots, but looks like they are going to hit the bottom pretty soon! Judging by the way they've performed up until now anyway i'm going to have to flower soon i think.bonclyde Reviewed by bonclyde on . new aero grow hiya folks i've just made an aeroponic system and it works brill, should have done it years ago. been with soil for so long, the results with this system is so much faster. can't believe the results on the roots in a matter of a few days, the roots are already about 4-5 inches long and theres masses of them!
