looks cool, but the real ones know about that algae...

Great video. Showing errors is extremely educational. Thank you.

My pump is heating up the water to 80f, so I added a thermoelectric cooling pad to the outside. You only need 5volt because 12v will freeze thd water

u can use just the 15 min timer....without all this

It is always a good idea to paint over the bucket with dark paint, the more light that enters the bucket the more likely you will get algae and other pests. Other than that nice build.

Die Wassertropfen sind viel zu groß für die Vorteile von aeroponic. Hol dir feine zerstäubungs düsen, und eine 24v Hochdruckpumpe mit 8 Bar. Statt rohr geht easy push in system

No idea what you would call this but it is not Aeroponics. Aeroponics is a mist of water. Though appreciate the details.

just use an air pump or 2.

is that too much spry though. you could drown them.??

think I'll try with ultrasonic nebulizers and without a pump.

where to get the container

you can heat a knife blade and melt the plastic to "solder" the broken piece of plastic

there has to be a fog but not a big tears

those impeller pump are very low pressure. its surprising it worked as well as it does.

Also connect the pump in center of the manifold

Besides that great idea my friend may try this

You need to get new pvc and make sure you get all plastic shavings out so they don't stop up sprayer nozzles

Hi my friend, you think with a little twist can be program a 110v pump to turn on for 10sec, every hour,? thanks great video

hey, what's size of the box?

Your want to paint that clear container. You will have a major algae problem eating your nutrients

light is not good for ryzom and water alges

Gotta use a mat container or you are gonna get mad algae

Never herd someone call a "hack saw" a "pipe saw" lol.....

NICE MEM

Very good MEM ☀️

I will tell all. To strong of a pump will destroy the roots. Learn from my mistakes😂😂😂

With that spray volume and droplet size, you're not actually getting the benefits of aeroponics so much as creating a high-energy kratky system. Plants will grow in it, but you won't get the fine root system and higher nutrient uptake that an aeroponic system is aiming for. You've got too many spray heads to begin with and they're too close to the roots, so you're effectively just hosing them down when ideally you want smaller droplets diffusing through the air and collecting in a fine mist on them. The weaker pump with less nozzles (and not aimed directly at the roots) will likely get you a better result. You could also use an ultrasonic mister in a separate container that has a filtered fan to flow the mist into the grow chamber (and which will also condense the droplets on the way through so that they size up from the 1 micron size that an ultrasonic mister will produce). But yeah, as that system is designed, you could just build a kratky system and save yourself the power cost of the pump. In a one chamber system the plants are going to eventually grow their roots down into the reservoir anyway and then the pump becomes pointless.

Cool setup! Have you thought of reducing the spray volume and do you have any results you can share? Also how do you drain/ replace the water? Do you have to take everything out?

Very well done. Ive been an electrician since1987. I was apprentice of the year but I think thats beyond old school. I want to learn this arduino stuff and you are teaching an old dog new tricks. Thank you. You get a new sub.

good day boss,can i ask the code?thank you

Schaut gut aus 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🍀🍀🍀

Good work 👍 . I would like to see a improvised update on this product . And Can we use other eco friendly material in place of plastic. Will a iron Aeroponic tower / Box work ?

I don't mean to be rude. I just want to try and educate you and the people that watch this video. First off this is not a aero setup. It's actually a hydro setup. The reason for this is, because your nute solution and pump are in the grow chamber. So once your roots start growing, they will be hanging down into your nute solution. Instead of just hanging in the air. Hence aeroponics. When growing with aero you want your system to have a grow chamber and a reservoir. The reservoir will have your nute solution and pump in it. Then you get a timer to where you can set seconds and minutes. And plug your pump into that. Because your ON spray time only takes seconds. And your OFF time takes minutes. For example you would only spray your roots for 5 seconds every 10 minutes. And then your nute solution drains back into the reservoir. So the roots are just hanging in the air. That pvc thing with your sprayers on it is called a manifold. Like I said I'm not trying to be rude. I'm just trying to give you some friendly advice. Now with your manifold. You have way to many sprayers. You just want to mist the roots a little, not soak them. I don't know if you have ever seen roots grown with aero. But there will be like main roots. And then off of them there will be like little hair roots. Well if you soak your roots you won't get any of the hair roots. Which help tremendously with the uptake of your nutes. Without these hair roots your limiting the success of your grow. Another thing about your manifold is it is sitting way to high up in your grow chamber. And you will have tons of leaks. My manifolds sit about 2 inchs off the bottom of the grow chamber. Someone already said something about your grow chamber and reservoir being light proof. But also there is one very important thing, that most people that try and grow with aero don't know is that you must keep your grow chamber and reservoir and nutes at around 75 degrees. This is very important from keeping mildew and mold from attacking your roots. Hence ROOT ROT. I've been growing with what is called LPA ( Low pressure Aeroponics ) for about 15 years now. Which means I'm not using a high pressure pump to achieve the droplet size required to grow with HPA ( High Pressure Aeroponics ). When I wanted to start growing with aero. I built a HPA system. It cost me over 500 bucks. And it was a pain in the rump. And then about a year after I was growing with HPA. I stumbled across this guys grow diary and he was growing with LPA. I'd never heard of it before. This guys diary was great. It was like a hundred pages long and he showed everything he did, even with hundreds of pictures. Anyway I built a LPA system. And did a side by side against my HPA system. And there was NO difference in the results. And the rest is history. LoL 😂😆. I built 4 LPA systems, which consist of 2, 23 site grow chambers with 1 reservoir. Each system is only 3'x3'. Thats 46 plants in a 9 s/ft area. I grow in what is called the SOG ( Sea Of Green). My plants are like 2 inchs apart. I've been growing this way for about 15 years now and it is the cheapest easiest and fastest way to grow. Anyway I hope this helps a little. Oh one more thing. The tubs you want to use are the black ones with the yellow lids from home Depot. Those are the only ones that will not leak. Good luck and take care. ASS OG. Aero Systems Sea Of Green.

Less nozzles and black walls won’t let light in there to grow algae

Also, cut your holes in your lid on a spare bin so you don’t worry about all the plastic sawdust. And don’t use a clear container! You’ll be overwhelmed by algae.

Sterlite makes a nice rubber made tote in 18 gallon size that is a little taller and softer plastic (no breaking). Also, using an aquarium pump domes with fittings that connect to pvc fittings better as well as a/c standard wiring that plugs in directly. On my setup, I drilled the wire access on side of the bin near the top (as opposed to the lid). Nice job on the project overall. I use mine as a closer and get roots at about 5 days on cuttings.

Have you heard of a aeroponic tower. Its way more efficient

Next time use a hot can on a stove to cut through the top plastic, no mess.

did you find the plants were okay w a transparent root environment?

👍

You did a nice job.Definitely could have been alot more simple,that’s not fun though.I’m glad to see you get the proper tools to get it done.Working plumbing this is hilarious😂You should have plenty of power with that pump to daisy chain into two smaller tubs.It’s insane the price of fresh produce

I have something related to hydroponics that i want to show you. What's the preferred way to message you that isn't a basic KZfaq comment?

lookin thick boy

Hello I have a question, when we talk about traditional soil culivation, we need nitrifying (or more) soil bacteria and fungus that live in symbiosis with the plants to be grown, is this the same for hydroponic and aeroponic method ? can we totally make the vegetable growing without these bacteria and fungus that transform nutrients ?

this is not aeroponic. this is aquaponic

Awesome man, keep up the amazing projects!!!

Love the theme, "How Hard Could It Be!"

Looking forward to seeing this lush!

I like that you used clear bins to show how it is fully assembled. I was hoping for a follow-up with it running and still in the clear bin. I figured you were clever enough to know that it had to be dark when you start growing plants. Unlike other commentary that was rudely stated to that fact.

Never going to work. You have too much light in the res.
