Hey,

Im taking the plunge and building a high pressure aeroponic system. I'm using John Guest fittings and tubing, all 1/4". I need some advise on misters. Angled? Strait? What brands will work? The pump Im using is a CDP 6800.

I have ordered everything but the misters. :)

Thoughts? Recommendations?

Another question: What kind of water lines should I use? I ordered 1/4" John Guest water line which is made for the HP John Guest fittings I'm getting. The pump runs at about 90 psi if I run 6 sprayers. Also, should I put in a solenoid to prevent overmist (continued spraying after the pump turns off while pressure drains from the line). I read somewhere that this can happen for up to 20 seconds after the pump goes off. I figure if I put a default open solenoid on the same timer I could vent the pressurized lines back into the reservoir after the pump goes off, thus stopping overmist.

Hope this makes sense
