Hey guys,

This is my first post and my first aeroponics grow...

I have done some successful soil grows, and have decided to skip normal hydro due to some complications, and the fact I had the equipment I needed to use lying around the house.

Now I'm not sure whether this is true Aeroponics or a cross between it and Hydroponics... perhaps someone could enlighten me?

Basically what I am doing, is suspending the plant (using some wire) with majority of its roots in air, and the rest submerged in a nute solution. I have an air pump agitating the solution to keep it mixed.

I will try to get a pic as soon as i can. :thumbsup:

I have heard that this way you don't need to keep the lights and pump etc on a timer going on and off all day, just keep it all on 18/6 cycle (apparently best for lowryder) everyday. Which is much more managable!

If anyone could tell me what exactly this method is called, whether i have got something wrong? or if you have any tips?

They would all be very welcome!

Cheers! :jointsmile:
