I'd say two or three per plant site. Its important that they are able to spray high enough on the root (not just the bottom of the roots). Do you have all your piping laid out? How about the pump itself, are you certain it is powerful enough?

the pump is 370 gph and quality. i have been toying with the misters and th pump with 1/2 tubing cover it all to any lenght. i am nervouse tho. i cant take it if i fuck up the second grow, so i am also thinking about an ebb plan. i cant find a good tray system so imight just order one. i have so many doubts but dont wanna fuck it up. i saw some hydro plans and wish o could follow some for aero that are good. something for a 400 like 10 plants. i wanna do clones veg for afew eeks then flower. repeateldy keeping a mother. i want either ebb or aero. i worried like i said og getting al wrong. i yu know any good aero diys let me know. i thinking like one 100 ml 3x2 aero chamber with pvc mister assembly inside that drains to big 10 or 15 gallon rubber maid reservoir. i got the pump and the misters are at the hd. its the pvc assembly i gotta get worked out. i stumped which dir to head. aero wud be cheaper for me, as i got everything but pvc. I could actually do 8 esy in right now with the materials i got. lol, i just rally pushing for 10 system so later i can upgrade to 600 with it. i might cracj an stop being such a tight ass and just buy somethoing

do they have to hit the whole plant root. i mena doe sit have to be drenched or are hitting certian area ok. like top and middel. how delicate is the matter of root watering. and is this realy a glorified drip sytem as i have herd it described? i am thinking with the oxygen mixing with the spray t is not.

To my knowledge in aero systems your not actually spraying the roots directly. The idea is to achieve 95-100% humidity within the chamber and keep it there.
