DE-“MIST”-IFYING: HIGH PRESSURE AEROPONICS. WHY AND HOW
. A look at aeroponics Especially the high pressure variety (+100psi). What it is, why you might want to use it and how to build a system of your own for under $500. let me know in the comments what we should grow in ours.

Hey man, I really enjoyed the video. Is there anyway you can post the parts list of the finished build in the description box? I would like to try to make the same build.
Hell ya!! Best one yet for sure!! Had to have a smoke after that 1, best part of the video was 13.50 close the door! Lol
Great video
Great video and very informative. A quick question for you. Is the timer for the solenoid valve in sync with the timer for the pump?
How was it you fried the solenoid? Did you mismatch the AC or DC delivery to the solenoid or did you mismatch the voltage, 24v to 12v solenoid?
Also wondering if you have had any issues with that polyvinyl tubing running from the pump to the accumulator? I am using 3/8 ID polyvinyl just to connect my filter and accumulator to the pump in/out. I am using 1/4 OD PU tubing the rest of the way with RO quick connect fittings (it was a bitch finding all the right sizes and whatnot). Also wondering if the brass solenoid has been okay for you so far? Thanks for any help.
Thank you very much friend, your video has been very helpful for us here in Chile. The mister / fogger kit is sold out in the amazon link that you left in the video description. Do you know if it can be obtained elsewhere or if there is any substitute system in Amazon? really thanks again
Nice video
Nice video! Super informative and I dig the tunes! Just getting into High Pressure Aeroponics myself!
Hey man, again, thanks for the info here. I am in the process of testing my build, and I am wondering why you put the filter between the solenoid and the accumulator. I was going to put mine between the reservoir output and the pump intake. Is there a reason why you put it where you did? If so, I would love to know why. So far I have no problems with where mine is places, as far as the system cycling and what not. I have yet to place live cuttings in, as I am waiting for space to open up in my veg room. Any help would be appreciated.
It was really cool … I liked it.
Amazing stuff. I’d like to find out why you changed the pump…. Did the first one fail??
Ty man… Just getting started myself
`you do this u better have extra pumps for back up
The inline filter should go between the resevoir and the pump, otherwise the gunk from the medium and plants will flow into the reservoir and go through the pump, which is what you want to avoid to protect the pump. Placing it after the pump and between the sprinklers can also cause issues with the PSI since it will reduce throughput.
3:39 Why wouldn’t you want hairy root growth?.
Have you upgraded? your HPA system, if so what are you currently using now?.
Hey man, got another question for you. These TOGOAL timers you used, how fine is the recycle function? Can you take it down to like 2 or 3 seconds on? Because I am using a spartan series recycle timer and it can only go down to 6 seconds on. That is the lowest interval for the on function with those. Not that six seconds is too much. It seems to be a good number, actually. But in the future I would like to be able to do 2 or 3 seconds on instead of 6.
Excellent video. Can you do a follow up on how the system is holding up?
Is that accumulator tank large enough?
Nice job,. i would switch out the clear tubing for black to prevent algae. Ideally, you should run the system drain to waste which will ensure your plants receive elementally stable, perfectly clean nutrient from start to finish. Its less work, no checking or adjusting EC or PH, no topping up or dumping the res, you just refill it when its gone. The 10-24 threaded brass patio misting nozzles are very easy to clog, check them often and have plenty of spares on hand. If you run it right, you`ll find the tote isnt big enough to handle the roots of 4 plants 😉
You are a scruffy bastard, but all good
