aeroponic systems are better than most hydro set ups imo. they produce bigger plants faster than my ebb and flo set up. complete systems are a little pricey, but you can buy just the sprayers [$1.75] and drill a proper sized hole in pvc plastic, tap it by cutting threads in the hole to screw in the sprayer, [you can get all this at hydro stores]. hook it up to any pump and there ya go. most handy people could easily build one of these. I run my pump 24/7 with no aerator in the tank and it easily grows almost twice as fast as my ebb and flo. I put 2 seedlings in an aeroponic set up about 3 weeks ago and they are over 30 inches tall with fan leafs 10 inches across. There is only 2 draw backs, one, is the tiny hole in the sprayers can clog up. I clean mine every week needed or not. the other is you have to raise the lights almost every day the plants grow so fast lol.
