So im making a closet system that is 73.5"x25.25" (looking at in from the top)

Im planning on growing 14 plants with a 5" spacing between them ((on all sides)is that the right ammount of plants?)

I want to build a manifold for my watering system but am not sure what size to build it...was going to use 1/2" PVC and make a grid system...

How many holes for sprayers should i make and how close should the manifold ever be to the roots/holes?

Thank!

sprayers on an ebb and flow table?

maybe im just wrong in calling it that....its would have plants in net pots and the grid would spray in the void under them (the layer the pots sit on and the one about 10" under it)

it would all drain to a bucket then go back through.

Research Ebb&Flo....

That would be your best solution for what you've describe so far.

Ebb&Flo is the BEST IMHO :)

What's nice about Ebb&Flow is you don't have to make any drippers or a manifold that eventually gets clogged up with calcium or nutrients.

Ebb&Flo is based off of a few simple parts and theories.
a. Pump
b. Over Flow Tube (very important)
C. Nutrient Solution

Thanks for the help and it looks like aeroponics is what i really want(i like the clean look)....it does seem like i will have to change the spray heads tho.....im going to repost this with the right title

rep+ for the help!
