Aeroponic System
Among Platinium Hydroponics' hydroponic systems, the Aerotube 100 aeroponic system is the most suitable for intensive and professional indoor growing of plant clones.
Aeroflo 28 pots is a very efficient hydroponic system. It allows perfect oxygenation of the nutrient solution and maximum plant growth.
GHE Aeroflo 60 pots is a high quality hydroponic system that allows perfect oxygenation of the nutrient solution and maximum plant growth.
Aeroflo 120 pots is a highly efficient aeroponic system. It allows perfect oxygenation of the nutrient solution and maximum plant growth.
By aeroponic system we mean a system that provides for the growth of the roots in an "aerial" and perfectly oxygenated environment. In fact, the nutrient solution is distributed on the roots through nebulizers, bringing a large amount of oxygen to them.
Therefore, the great advantage of growing with aeroponic systems is undoubtedly the greater aeration of the nutrient solution, accelerating their growth and preventing pathogens.
In fact, through the control of the environmental parameters of light, temperature, ph and conductivity , with aeroponic systems we will obtain optimized results in terms of speed, quantity and quality compared to crops with traditional techniques.
With the absence of soil and consequently of its natural parasites, the plants will be protected from eventual infestations and the root system will be plentiful and healthy thanks to a facilitated absorption of the fertilizers.
Can you do an aeroponic growing system at home?
The instrumentalization necessary for aeroponic growing system consists in the presence of a reservoir for nourishment placed under the mesh baskets, placed in trays or channels in which there are nebulizers which spray the droplets directly on the roots.
They form a sort of mist around the plant, these droplets are managed and released through ultrasound which, emitting almost 2 million vibrations per second and allowing their smaller size below 5 microns, very small if we consider that the average size is 2.5 microns.
Precisely thanks to this characteristic, the roots are able to capture the necessary nourishment and will discard the excess solution for the growth and flowering process of the plant.
Aeroponics system for sale: are they woth it?
We have seen how growing with aeroponic systems allows guaranteed results, of excellent quality, shortening harvest times.
Furthermore, the absence of substrate and total control of water and nutrients allow for considerable savings in resources.
On the other hand, it is certainly a process that requires more meticulous attention than the classic cultivation in the ground.
Finding aeroponics system for sale is an easy task when looking at the right place like Grow Shop Italia. Here you will find a good selection of aeroponic system for all your needs.
Solution change and irrigation frequency in the aeroponic system:
To better guarantee the wholesomeness of the nutrient solution, it is a good idea to replace it completely every 5-7 days, clean the tank and the micro-irrigation well.
The irrigation cycles in aeroponics vary according to the cultivated species. However growers usually proceed with cycles of 15 minutes every 30/60 min . Here are some tricks to ensure successful cultivation with the aeroponic system
- Regular checking of the EC value using a conductivity meter. Its ideal value is from 0.8 usc/m in the first vegetative period, to reach up to 2.0 usc/m
- Regular check of the ph of the solution, with a digital ph meter.
- Ensure the nutrient solution stays below 22 degrees in temperature to prevent root fungus.
- Replacement of the nutrient solution every 5-7 days max.
- After each harvest, the entire plant must be cleaned and sterilized before a new cycle.
With these precautions, by growing with an aeroponic kit you will have healthy and luxuriant growth for your plants, shortening the growth and flowering times and allowing a considerable saving of resources.
