Been a long time since I was last here, couldn't get my old account. Must of be purged from riu hisorty haha.

Anyway, long time soil man, moved to a Wilma 8pot aero mash up for the craic and would like some help.

Can't seem to get my misters to spray very well and give me the expected 360 spread I would expect from the red ones.

Pump is a variable 2300lph model at Max and its just not cutting it as you csn see. I have 8 of these misters that I'd like to run and get the full spread.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you have the nozzle spec (gph and psi) and pump spec with performance curve (flow/head) you coud work out how many nozzles the pump can handle, it doesnt sound like it`ll be many.
The adhoc method is to try it with 1 nozzle and if that looks ok, add nozzles one at a time until the performance doesnt meet expectations. Remove a nozzle and thats what you have to work with :)

I use an eco 633 on 15 spray heads (180 degree) and it works great. All manifolds are 3/4 rigid piping, 3 manifolds per tray and 5 sprayers each. The pumps are 3 years old now and not any issues other than a thorough descaling at end of cycle.

I'm confused (as usual). I looked up those Wilma systems and didn't see anything about aero----all were using gro rocks and drip nute delivery.

Are you modifying the pots for aero? If yes, what are you using for pot lids?
