Honestly, I have never grown mary J in hydro or fog, but I built a fogger cloner that works great for cloning. As an experiment I put cauliflower and cucumber seeds in it to see how it does, and it seems to work great! I'll get a current pic of what i have going in the ol' veg area...

Getting the cabinet ready...

I left the powersupply for the birdcage on the wall just in case my 290 watts of overhead quantum boards aren't enough and I need to add some side lighting! I also have Blumats in there that are connected to my reservoir if I decide to run coco or soil. "Just in case"

I have the 12 gallon tote in there that I will float 2 ultrasonic foggers in along with airstones fed by an external air pump. The foggers should really speed up growth for the sproutling, and when roots reach the nutrient water, there will be plenty of oxygen waiting.

Side note, I have a cauliflower plant in hydro and a cauliflower in fogponic and the fog is probably twice the size and both were started at the same time.
I only tried fog once and the ultrasonic fogger I had broke within six weeks. What brand are you using?

House of hydro?? Something like that. They specialize in foggers and offer a warranty at least. Plus they come with a few extra fogger diaphragms (not sure what you call them - the little disks that produce the fog), and they don't have fancy dumb led's on the fogger heads. These seem to be "workers" not "show" foggers. I have been using these for about 2 years straight.

And look at this clone I took at around 7 weeks of flower. It's just a nug on a stem! But there are roots

I just moved some plant out of there and DANG, I need to get the shop vac in there!

Yeah I just want to grow a 1 gal plant in some soil lmao.
I want to win too, but it's looking ever doubtful
So did I, but they made the rules no holds barred, unlimited everything, so what am I supposed to do? LOL. I am used to competing with very strict rules. "1 quarter inch hole only". "Cannot modify your 16 oz. cup in any way other than the 1/4" hole". "No external reservoir or watering devices", etc. This SHOULD be an impressive grow, but I will probably crash and burn. HAHA
