New hydro setup

[trader54]

Hello all, I'm developing plans to construct a new closet hydro op, but I'm new to hydroponics and would like some feedback and insight. I have experience growing with soil but I am looking to increase output and efficiency from my small grow space. So I'm considering going with the Aero Machine 9, primarily because it fits precisely in my space. I figure I can fit 5 plants in this 9 site system, to give them space to grow.

If anybody is using this machine or any of the Aero series, I'd appreciate feedback on how you enjoy it and how well it works.

I'm also open to building a system, if anyone can recommend anything. I'm not sure if I should start out with a professional system or engineer one. I'm looking to get going soon. How much could I expect to pay to build one that is comparable to the Aero9?

Also what books or tutorials do you recommend for hydro or aeroponic growing.

You could build a rubbermaid Deep water culture (bubblers) for less money. and it's a really simple device (i.e. hard to fuck up). I'm about to build one for my first hydro grow. The guy at my hydro shop says he loves bubblers

This is how you make individual bubblers in buckets. you can make larger ones to hold more plants in rubbermaid tubs.
