Hey all just a quick question. I understand the principle of both systems and to me it looks like they're practically the same thing, in terms of a pump pushing water up through nozzles to create streams of water that hit roots/cuttings. Would this be correct?
Its windy as crap down here and a Christmas ornament fell down and snapped off a branch from my Jalapeno plant. I stuck it into a glass of water but new stagnant water will just cause problems. I had all the parts to build my self an aeroponic system and managed to whip something up in about 10 minutes. Its now running throwing 6.0ph water at the cutting. I didn't have any of that foam stuff so I just made a hole in the bottom on a net pot and stuck the bottom of the cutting out through that and have some clay balls holding it in place.
Would this suffice to help develop a root basis? I don't know if I am meant to add any nutrients. Its about 25L of water and I only put a smidgen of chilli focus in the solution.
Cheers
