3 gallon buckets

[sgrowdum]

Feed to waste HPA. Aeromist 300psi pump with .008 sprayers in each bucket. It will be more of a fog than a mist to be honest.

With that said I think I'm going to go another route becuase the sprayers are like $4 each and I would need 50 or so buckets to fill my 8X8 tent. I'll probably make a thread about it in here. Im probably going to run 2 3X6 trays back to back in the 8X8 tent and use the same aeromist pump.

How do you plan on doing aeroponic in individual buckets?

I do aeroponic in individual buckets. I run about 12 buckets with seperate pumps and I use a 360 clone spinner no longer available on the market. Each bucket can hold one to four plants depending on strain. Is easier than running rezs like before I can individualize feeding easier thru veg and bloom. I just unplug a bucket from the veg room move it to the bloom room and plug it back in to timer and change feeding schedule as needed. I let them run good and low and don't top off. Peace

Like a diy cloner? Bucket filled to just below spray head sprayinn by a submersible pump?

I remember the clone spinners from like the mid 90's. Looked like little sprinkler heads vs just being atomized through small holes in sprayheads like they have now.

Edit: I see they still make the ones I'm thinking of. Shows you the last time I used em haha

Yep you got it

The ones I used back in the 90's were barbed for I believe 3/8 or 1/2" id. They make barbed and threaded, but as a diyer I always went with the barbed. Then they aren't meant for any one specific brand/model of unit.

I like the little red ones you screw into the pipe. They get a great spread and are far less complicated.

I've used the blue Lowes buckets for years without any issue. The amount of light that comes through the bucket is very miniscule and has never given me negative results.
Roots stay clean and theres always lots of em.

Thanks! No hydroguard or anything like that. I just run a steril res and keep it clean with 8ml H2o2 (3% drug store stuff) per gal every 3 days or so. City water added right from tap.
