DIY fogger / mister

[Tunkers]

Not sure if I'm onto something but I picked up one of those pond mist makers from bundogs today for $65 and chucked in a bucket. I'll try it out on some strawberry bulbs I also grabbed at big B. I like that it bubbles and spurts a little as well just like those Dewey misters I seen people using.

 

 

I think the lights might cause issues but I can probs remove them

yea them lights gunna make them roots angry as fuck and prob kill em

I'll address the lights if need be. Noticed the water warms up if you leave the fogger going so I put it on a timer to run 15 mins every hour. Fixes the temps and means the led lights aren't on all day.

I think they're responding well

You are a classic.

I'm new to it still myself Carnage. I figure it's just like aeroponics except using fog. As long as temps stay low and the roots stay wet I can't see anything going wrong. Except the LEDs... Just don't wanna break it if not needed so I'll keep trialling the strawberries

i guess if its misting and fogging, that only h20 would be in the mist/fog.... and the nutrients would stay down low in the container.

 

would this be correct ?

 

im trying to see what my possibilities and uses are

Just YouTube diy fogponics. People use them so they must feed the plant. Watch and we'll see

They work using ultrasonics. Make sure the nutes are completely water soluble most hydro nutes are. The biggest issue is that the salts/minerals can build up in the plate voids (where the mist rises from), and can reduce their performance. Some of the better foggers have replaceable plates so when they begin to block up you can change them out.

 

EDIT: No the nutes will be suspended in the mist
