I'm so mad right now I can explode!
I spent countless hours and money building a 32plant aero setup and I'm junking it. Everytime I fix something five more things go wrong. I feel like such a loser. I bow down to Earl and Filthy and everyone else who can build those things and maintain them.

Lets see what you got, before you sh!t-can it.

A little remodel with what you have, I bet you can do it.

We need to see it though.

No shit, dont just junk it. Stuff goes wrong thats the way it works. There are a bunch of people on this forum that would be glad to help, but you need to be more specific. Tell us about your setup and what keeps fucking up. The more info you give, the better chance someone can help you get on the right track.

Thanks for the support guys, but I took it down and threw it in the attic. I'm saving it for parts in the future.
I made a lot of mistakes on it, and it is a fragile little bitch.
It's fixable, but I almost have to go back to square one and I'm not up for that, even then I have to worry all the time about springing a leak.
I'm on level 2 of a duplex and I cant risk leaks!
Plus I'm not that experienced at growing and I really need a harvest this winter!!
So I went with something a lot easier for me to manage.
I bought 4 2x4 Botinicare ebb & flow flood tables and the proper hookups. It's basically Plug&Play or Plug&Grow....
It cost me $500 when it's all said and done, but I can start growing in a day or 2. Plus I will have a piece of mind.
If I would have done this 2 months ago instead of the aero, I'd be 1month away from flowering.

If you put the plant holders(12 site) on top of your Botanicare trays(2X4) you can use them aero.

Thanks for looking that up for me I appreciate it!
I'm sticking with flooding right now (I'm broke as hell), but I will look into that in the future

You could just grow with a soiless medium or soil, hand water and feed then you do not have to worry about leaks or building anything except for maybe a reflector or light fixture. A lot of people who are really experienced at building their own hydroponic or aeroponic systems start out with soil or soiless.
