Perfect video thank you for the knowledge 🙏

[@fareastson2420]

New subscriber here! Thank u for the great explanation !

[@HighTechGardener]

You're welcome my friend

[@bloomflora1105]

Thank you! I love this! How do you connect the reservoir with the pressure tank?

[@fabiog801]

Man i love your videos. You are like the yoda of aero

[@HighTechGardener]

May the force be with us. Thanks

[@justinFillion-b9h]

Really enjoy your videos, very informative. Is there any way to get in touch with you ?

[@gravoidforyou8492]

Are you considering doing a video discussing the droplet spray velocity or Misting Cycle? As everyone has said your videos give awesome detailed information that helps in understanding how the system actually works.

[@jokibud1969]

I used an Amazon airoponic chamber for 4 plants it was brilliant but i ended up using cocolilos n kilos of tomatoes n cucumbers..so quick to grow but the pumps can go before you notice it and it can be to late...was thinking of of a mist delivery system

[@danielbuttner8585]

Hi, would placing the accumulator at a hight equivilant of the Grow Chamber 1 solve pressure related issues by using gravity instead of fighting it? After all, the pressure being a little bit to high is not as bad as having it to low, right? Thanks for the interesting content, I'm new to this type of growing plants in a "non-soil" way and I right now experiment with hydrocultures, but im definetly going to do some aeroponics as soon as i have the right budget and space to do so. Your videos are helping me a lot in developing ideas on how to set up my future systems!

[@carejelectronic2338]

Very good explanation

[@8tarkhan8]

You mentioned in aeroponic you can grow a plant from seed. How would you hold the seed? I am assuming a holes in a normal basket is too large for seeds like lettuce. I would appreciate your help on this.

[@chaddyaniwcellist]

I am planning on doing this using a bit of cheesecloth to wrap the seed inside the net pot to prevent it from falling through.

[@GameOver-qk2ys]

What are your thoughts on fogponics vs aeroponics

[@kotgc7987]

What has faster growth, aero sprinkler or aero atomiser? Some people say use brass sprinklers to droplets are 30-50 microns and others say they don't use brass sprinklers.

[@HighTechGardener]

Check out my nozzle videos.

[@mdoooo7]

How would you anchor the plant if you were growing tomatoes if you’re not using any media I don’t understand it

[@HighTechGardener]

You need to support the plant above the roots. Good question. Maybe I ll explain this later.

[@co0op731]

Do you need a timer for each solenoid? How do you activate them one after another like that. Sorry no prior knowledge with this kinda stuff.

[@HighTechGardener]

Lots of questions. I cover this in my course. Sign up at my website aeroponicsdiy.com

[@majesticflooring1536]

Thank you for the tutorial greatly apricated. Anyway, I have a few questions how far should the nozzles be spaced apart per growing chamber. The reason I am asking is I have very long table 10 L/F I was thinking of spacing 2 to 3 growing chambers across the table. in addition, what would be the max spray nozzles per line? should I put a pressure gauge at the end of the series to verify 80 to 100 psi. Using this method would also make lighting much easier and ideas on economical light fixtures for indoor growing in have the perfect room. I find your expertise and content addicting I have to stop for now im about 7 videos in at one secession, nice work thank you.

[@HighTechGardener]

Hi majestic, The aeroponics calculator should answer most of your question. Thanks for asking

[@robertlawson4491]

How does the nutrient recycle?

[@permatopiafarm1119]

Yes please, would like to know that too. Thank you.

[@blueinfiniti22]

Are solonoids and pressure tanks required if you are doing a smaller setup with just a pump and and an on / off timer and pressure switch? Or is this for larger systems where a tank needs to hold a higher pressure?

[@HighTechGardener]

Yes, they are required if you're serious about true aeroponics. However, feel free to try it out. It could work for what you're growing. Thanks for asking

[@nicholaselkert6032]

On the first design with the one solenoid, can’t you continue the single pipe driving the water past the third connection, causing back pressure that would drive the pressures evenly through the pipe or even create a 4 pipe manifold right after the single solenoid to do the same as the 3 solenoid as long as the piping was the same length and diameter after the manifold?

[@HighTechGardener]

If I understand what you mean, it would all need to be at the same level.

[@nicholaselkert6032]

If you were to put the manifold at the top level, then wouldn’t that take care of the problem you were talking about.

[@jonosterman2878]

Can you talk about difference in using diaphragm vs rotary vane pumps, like nuert? Would the rotary vane types be more reliable?

[@HighTechGardener]

Thanks Jon for the question. This could be another experiment.

[@Floridabeatmakers]

I have 2 questions I own a tower garden. I purchased new nutrients. Grow and bloom. I am using 200 ml of solution in a 20 gallon tank. Running in intervals of 15 min on and off. I’ve been having issues with the growth they are dying. Is this due to over fertilization of nutrients? I am looking at you system and I am wondering what happens when the tomatoes, basil and peppers start growing like a weed. How do you set it up from the first second and third stage. Or do they have their own system like tomatoes and peppers. Basil separate with other herbs. I have had awesome results in the past using their nutrients I decided to go with a different food.

[@HighTechGardener]

I'm a high pressure aeroponics grower.

[@lukealiciouss]

Can this work for shelves that are below the level of the solenoids?

[@HighTechGardener]

Yes

[@jtg2314]

Where do you position the nozzles in the grow chamber? If directly at the bottom, won’t the roots eventually block the nozzles and misting?

[@HighTechGardener]

jtg. Your best position is the bottom. However, there are more things to consider to determine the nozzle location. Your root chamber should be deep enough where the roots never touch bottom. This is another video making. Thanks for the question.

[@norbertvincze8853]

Hi guys! Could hydroponic systerm have this problem with the same setup, too? thanks

[@HighTechGardener]

Sure

[@robertlawson4491]

Where is the pump in the diagram? Is it in the nutrient reservoir? Does it connect to the tank?

[@HighTechGardener]

Hey Robert, I used cut up fish pond filter pads. Hope that helps. Thanks for asking

[@halilozilice9604]

great

[@brunolee7771]

i love you man

[@TexasLocalProduce]

Thank You for your videos. You have a wealth of very helpful info. Sadly though, your delivery & presentation has much to be desired. I have a post-baccalaureate level education & am in my 60's yet I *still* dozed off multiple times during 2 of 2 videos I just saw from you. Plse. consider taking the camera completely away from you and for Gods sake, stop reading to use! Plse. just talk to us instead while you walk around showing us (or build, or present a *real* system at the very least). Thank you for listening & plse. don't stop sharing your knowledge & expertise.

[@HighTechGardener]

More show and tell. Got it. And you're very welcome.

[@milogardner9951]

I found it really really helps to play the video at 1.25 speed.

[@itisno1]

solenoids controlled via microcontroller ftw

[@HighTechGardener]

I think my course will answer your question. Sign up here: aeroponicsdiy.com/free-aeroponics-video-course/

[@hilema41]

No offense, your content is interesting but it is so slow.... tbh I had to set it to 2x speed and still skipped part. All the best though

[@HighTechGardener]

Thanks for your patience. I'll try to improve my videos.

[@hilema41]

@@HighTechGardener it even more interesting has its not much covered on KZbin and you seem knowledgeable with decent logic. All the best to you and your channel from France!

[@xara9153]

You're talking to much and show to less.

[@HighTechGardener]

Got it. More show.

[@bimangogoi1195]

You speak to much
