   Hey what’s up bro ?
   Is this a HPA ? ( high pressure areoponiics) system?
   Also what type of grow chamber ( tub ) is that?
   Does it leak at all ?

   I’ve been growing with LPA (low pressure aeroponics) for about 8 years now.
   In the SOG ( sea of green).
   When I first built my systems the only major problem I had was finding a grow chamber that wouldn’t leak. It took me about 2 year’s and alot of cursing.
   But I found one.
   The way I built my areo systems is. Each system has 2, 21 site grow chambers with one reservoir.
   I have 4 of them.
   With the 2 grow chambers side by side they measure 2’9"×3′. And the reservoir sits off to the side away from the light.
   My plan was with the grow chambers this size I could use 1 led light that covered that area over each system.

   So I purchased some lights that the manufacturer stated covered a 4’x4′ area in flower. Which it did.
   But the problem I ran into was the led light fixture itself was only 18"×18".
   So on my first grow with these lights every plant that was not directly under the light fixture only grew half as big or smaller depending on how far away from the light fixture they were.

   For example every plant that was directly under the fixture grew to 30" tall.
   Then all the plants that were only a quarter of a inch away from the fixture only grew to 12" tall.
   Then the plants that were 1&2 inches away only grew 8&6 inches tall.
   That’s a dramatic difference.
   Well I ended up building my own 3’x3′ led lights.
   And that took care of that.
   The way I run my systems is I take 42 clones, I use areo cloners. In 5 to 7 days I start getting roots.
   I let them go for 17 days.
   And the roots are 3 times longer than the plants you show in this video.
   The plants are about 6 inches tall at this stage.
   Then I put them straight into 12/12. No veg. stage.

   Come harvest time the plants are 24 to 30 inches tall. And are 25 to 30 Gs each.
   Do the math.
   That’s pretty good for a 3×3 area. In fact that’s damn good.
   It took a few years and some ups and downs to get to this point.
   But growing this way is the easiest, fastest and cheapest way I have ever grown. And I’ve been growing almost 40 years now.
   Oh one more thing.
   I use 2 inch net pots with just the neoprene inserts.
   Nothing else. And I’ve never had any problems.
   Also I use the same thing you use to cover my grow chambers except I cover the sides and bottom.
   Keep having fun.
   Because it’s alot of fun once you get it dialed in.
   Sincerely ASSOG.

   If you want to see “fish bones “ it’ll be more down how you crop steer . For example veg steer – roots become elongated , you grow stalks stems and leaves ; generative steer you’ll see more devolved roots the plants focus on shoots and fruits

   Nice following your grow. One question, where do you store your nutrient reservoir?
