RocketBoy's drip bucket system for Mothers

Because Aeroponics was not made for mothers. When a pump fails or sprayer get clogged and you're not there to catch it, you know that plant is as good as dead with in an hour or two.
Coco is a great hydro medium with a built in fail-safe lol. If the pumps go out, the root stays moist and the plant stays alive.

Although I also think that Aeroponics is not the best way for mothers, it is of course not true that the pant is as good as dean within an hour or two.
Roots can survive even when they are dry for a longer time. Also they will survive in still standing water (as Kratky showed us)
Of course it is not ideal, but it is not as dramatic as 'dead in 2 hours'. :)
 
I'm finding it better then soil/less mix, coco, DWC, ect.. No mess, no root rot; no problem, for now.

P.S I forgot to buy a 2.5 gallon bucket for the top so I had to improvise.

I love your setup. I am very familiar with the typical black 1/4" tubing and T connectors but I have never seen white or the kind of T connectors you are using. What are they from?

The hose and T connectors are Reverse Osmosis parts that I had laying around.
