Hello everyone! I'm new here to the forums and was hoping to gain some suggestions and more knowledge in regards to growing peppers hydroponically.
I started with an aero garden 6 after I was given a variety of pepper seeds from bell to ghost by a friend. From there, I bought 3 aero garden 7 models which I used to grow the seeds.
I started researching hydroponics and got into it after visiting a couple shops when I was out of town.
My current setup consists of a two tier shelve system with a hydroponic drip system using 8 3 gallon pots with 60/40 perlite and coco coir medium.
I prune and top the plants often as to have kept them manageable within the aerogardens, but have just transplanted them.

In the shelves, top is from left to right; various herbs, bell peppers, red and orange habenaro, cayenne
Bottom; ghost, red sweet, (empty), sweet banana
Any and all suggestions are appreciated! Don't know if I'm doing this right or if there's a better way to go about this. Some of the plants in the aerogarden were getting a little droopy and root rotted. So I hope this new setup will be good. Using flora series nutes
After clearing the aerogardens I think I'll start making small jungles of either ghost or Carolina reaper peppers. Hope to hear from you guys soon, thanks!
