How to build an aero setup

Great post Fletch!! Thanks for all the useful information. And seeing how this is the giving season, maybe you could see it in your wonderful caring heart to share the rest of you design with us......Please.

If not I'm sure I'll figure it out, but it sure would be nice to have something to start with.

Thanks for all you hard work and ingenious thinking. Keep it up Good Job

curious. just spent 260 for a 5 pot all in one kit. this looks like more fun!

Well you potentially could have built this 32 site setup for hundred less then taht.I did a grow journel on a grow in one of these setups I mad.Just search my name in the grow journels its in there.Get 120 plus oz wet per grow in it

need to know what is up with putting the rest together, (manifold and misters?). help.

sounds good so far im building something similar but only 3 plants per post and only2 posts

Yup this basic design can be modified per need.I make and sell larger and smaller units of this type

would love to see the finish!!!

This thread is great, but please if you could finish it, it would be great. I know I would appreciate it a great deal.

Your better off just taking a good look and the pictures, comparing to other builds and figuring it out for yourself. He hasn't given the slighted notion about finishing it. Plus from the fact that he has stated that he sells these, he is probably just trying to hook people into buying the rest of the plans or already build products. Or maybe not, but either way it doesn't look like he is going to help you out.

^^^^what are you talking about dude^^^

you obviously are talking out the side of your neck. Fletch is known to be the Aero man around here....he knows his shit.

He's also very busy, however, when he has time....he is always on the board helping with anything asked.

i think its pretty unfair to act like that and say shit like that when folks have lives outside of the internet. The man has a family, respect that..... he helps alot and shines alot of knowledge thru out the forums and for the DIY yourself people.


Sorry, me and fletch are cool....that is my peoples!!!! and it just kinda annoys me the way people think members should be obligated to help other members who wont RESEARCH and do the homework first.

Thanks for the defen loud...I guess he just didnt read the other posts.I had said I have to take pictures of the insides of the unit I personally used but since the weather is hanging around -20 F its to cold to get out to where I use these and disassemble it and do a reverse engineer on it with pictures.Im more then happy to share the design even though I sell them as Im not a greddy person and if someone feels comfortable building it thats great but I sell them to those who arent really comfortable building or just dont want too.If it stops snowing and the temps get above zero Ill try to get the pictures.

dam yet another reason to hate the cold

nice setup, cant wait to see the end

fletch what kind of 360 degree spinkers do you use? like this one Discount Hydroponics - Hydroponic Spinner or this one Discount Hydroponics - Micro Spray Jet?

why is it better to have the manifold on the inaide? wouldnt there be more room inside with it outside

Good Job. Cant wait to build one. Way to be resourceful and using fence posts.

Its better to have them inside as they get to cover more of the root zonne.The top feed kind only mist the top side of the pot meaning you need 2 per pot to just cover the side of the net pots which means the roots dont search downward as fast for the water source so the roots dont grow as fast.The amount of space a 1/2 inch line takes is almost none inside the chamber.The inside mounted line aslo gives the roots something to grab on to which holds the plants tight into the system to help stop tip overs which you can get with the top feed lines.Look at alot of these setups and you will see tey have redesigned to inside laser drilled lines.Also I get the mister heads that are red and do not spin. Alternative Garden Supply - Hydroponics and Indoor Gardening Supplies and Equipment sells these kinds as the spinners will get tangled and not spin then you get absolutly no spray coverage

subscribed, im glad i found this, thanks FF, you da man. im subscribing so i can read the rest later and maybe pick at your brain a little bit.


edit..... i guess the first page was all there was to read anyways. hopefully it'll get warmer soon because we all are anticipating this. thanks again FF..

definately a good read waiting to hear the rest as i am currently trying to find out how to build one of these
