My new setup
Ive been lurking around this forum for a while now.. guess its time I post something.
[FONT="]I made this setup after learning about the basics of aeroponics from stinkbuddie's site.
I made the cloner and one of the flower units and kept them in my back yard. I couldnt fit it into my closet so I augmented the main design to fit with what I had to work with.
[/FONT] [FONT="] I started off with a bunch of clones. I just wanted to see if the cloner I made even worked. I got some GDP cuttings from a collective near my work given to me when they were trimming back their mothers. I filled it up with water from the tub, skipped the hormone stuff, and left the cloner out on my porch for a couple weeks. One day roots started coming out of the bottom of the stems[/FONT].
Then they kept growing.
I was going to put some of them into the ground outside but my landlord has some things in a shed in my backyard and pops in from time to time, so outdoor isnt my best option.
I had a tray that my friend found in a canyon that had a broken drainage nipple on, it and various pvc connectors from my old sprinklers and the last system I made. I knew in my head what I wanted but didnt have a lid to go over the top of it. I found a container at target for 17 bucks that fit inside the tray almost perfectly
and after a little sanitization I was able to start bringing the design to life.
I laid out the 1/2" pvc how I thought it should go and eyeballed the cuts with my skill saw.
[FONT="]After putting the container over it I decided to add another row of sprayers to it to give the roots a little more to work with.[/FONT]
[FONT="]after a little red hot blue glue the pipes were ready to be drilled. I used an 11/64 drill bit to make holes[/FONT]
even if you are medicated, make sure to put your tools back when you are done... otherwise life sucks..
im gonna take a smoke break. Ill post more in a bit
