Aeroponic's, HATCH Style
Great thread guys! Wish I found it like 2 days earlier. I bought some mister/fogger heads at home depot. Set my system up and watched water drip out of the nozzles. Went back bought a 130 gph pump, and watched the same thing happen. Now I know I have to get a 1000+ gph pump.
Hatch, have you tried the fogger heads?

Hatch,
So glad I finally thought to type "fogger" into the search bar instead of just "cloning", aeroponics, and so on.
Cause I got a 700gph pump and was rethinking it might be too much for the many usual 4 nozzle - one purpose - cloning DIY rigs that are so all over the place online.
On my first grow I tried catching the cloning wave but failed. Yeayright like one gallon of untreated water with an airstone wasn't pissin into the wind.
But besides just keepin one flowering female to the tune of 8oz a year, wife and I do wanna also do cutting propagation of fruit trees and bushes, and other valued tree speicies.
............................
So I love this cause all I need to figure out here now is ....
Well,
How many danged pages of hoots I gotta plow:stoned: through here before I get to see your "fogger" in action.

Just outta frustration from not having a simple parts list.
I mean why not just attract as much inefficient bandwidth to my 2 hour goosechase here looking for how I can work a fogger into this picture.
This is the best thread I have found so far on this.
But it took me a friggin week (part time) to zero in on this, but I gotta drive 123 miles to do it all retail (Drat-yeah-HD-cash-anonymous-)(and not by hit or miss online purchases).
Hatch,
My problem is I am reading your various casual material rundowns (piece meal mentions) and so far is I keep wading through posts to catch up scattered plumbing specifications. Now I see you refer to a 3/4 "hose".
I'm a total doof on this stuff, bud.
From your pics it is hard for a non-plumber space cadet like myself to determine whether your quad PVC joint pieces are what you are referring to. Those are 3/4 ID right?
I'm still also trying to figure out whether it would be worth it to add in a true fogger nozzle, and if the heating issue then, is still as simple as rating the reservoir heater for the gallon size of fish tank you would be wanting to run.
I'll keep reading but it would way be cool if you could post up a newer more concise quik flyby of all the connections, inside and out. And a parts list.
Lotta people on dialup connections and using proxies are often what keeps good sites like this impossible to nav when using a proxy. And a lot of people prefer to. Especially us who aren't gettin too off on the I wanna be a legend trip. But just want the gist, get in and out, you know, basically be total snobs, and get back to their other lives, and conserve the bandwidth in the process.
Excuse me.
Guess I was in a mood.
I'll now gladly proceed to reload another hundred pages of posts as if the word buzzkill still meant any damned thing.

Not meanin to sound rude here but this is a truly impressive design to me. But I am hoping to get away with more square inch surface area -- find or build - figerglass - to say 30 x 60" and have it to run fruit tree cutting propagation.
So -- Pressure-wise -- unless I find a nozzle per 700gpm pump - I don't know how big I should design the thing -- once you factor in say roughly double the 1/2"D pipe line length you got there between the joiner quads and t's.
Where the heck can I find if you used and true fogger nozzles, or not?
And I am mostly frustrated by how slow this site is these days when using a proxy. Next to impossible. And we all should realize how that fact may very well be "by design", all you raving half-citizens out there.
Okay sorry. Something else entirely killed my buzz just then.
Lol.

Kudos to you, mon, for coming up with an easy-to-build-and-maintain cheapo Aero solution! I've been thinking about similar designs a lot, lately, but yours is one of the cleanest and easiest to build that I have seen yet...
I've /gotta/ try this for my next 'gardening' project
