Would you buy this vertical growing unit?
I have some friends working with a company who is designing an aeroponic vertical grow system.The system is around 5 square feet and 5 ft high. It utilizes 5 sets of circular rings that each have 20 plant sites similar to Ez-Clone's machine (neoprene puck with a plastic puck collar)- total of 100 plant sites. The system is meant to be used as in an Alpha/Omega style grow (from cuttings to harvest). With recent tests this system has yielded on average .5 oz/plant, totaling 50 oz utilizing one vertically hung 600w HPS bulb and no CO2 implementation. The total cycle is obviously strain dependent, however the test grows have been completed in 11 to 12 weeks, cuttings to harvest.
The system would come with:
20 Gallon reservoir
High Flow/High Pressure Pump with necessary hosing attachments
Electronic emergency pump failure valve utilizing a standard garden hoses as an inlet and a drain
Digital ballast 120/240V, dimmable to 1000w, 750w, 600w
Lamp socket for HID bulbs as well as an additional CFL lamp socket (for the cloning stage)
A cycle stat pump timer
The system would come in multiple boxes. The parts are mostly pre-assembled. The parts require no glue to attach the PVC Aero tubing, making assembly and dis-assembly very easy. The user has the option to use the recommended 600w bulb, a 750w, or a 1000w.
The unit would be available in most local hydro stores as well as for order on the web and directly from the manufacturer.
The tentative price is ~$1999.00
Attached is a 3D rendering of what the base unit will resemble. This is obviously w/out the res, pump, lights,etc.
