Is Fogponics the same as Aeroponics? ... In aero if a nutrient recommends 5ml per 1L it is recommended you use 3.5ml per L instead, not sure of the conversion factor exactly though.
Aero is great, tell more about this Fogponics?

Whaaale from all i learned thus far. fogponics is like aeroponics except uses an ultrasonic water fogger to turn the nutrient solution into fog to better penetrate roots than even regular aero.

Hmm... Sounds suspicious lol ... In Aero if the nutrient solution is atomized to finely (below 40 microns per droplet I think?) - Then it becomes too fine for the roots to efficiently absorb and therefore is less effective. But maybe this is different, or maybe the droplets still remain large enough to be absorbed.

I've used Supernatural, Canna & House & Garden all with good results. I have used Liquid Karma, Cal-Mag, Flouralishious, Nirvana, Super Nova & Thrive Alive with good results. The only product I've used that caused problems was the GH Sub Culture. They clogged up things like no tomorrow.
I usually run full strength+ on my nutes, my system is a hybrid Aero/fog/DWC. do it's a bit different than fog alone. I am at 1000ppm for veg & 1500 ppm for flower.

good shit. i think i wanna try that :] i think it would work well with a high drain like an ebb n flow. so that you could have the dwc water circulate from a main res. or is that what you do?
i'm currently running dwc right now, but always want to try new things.
