So I . . .

[thedopeman]

So I went to build an aeroponic system. I have all of my supplies except the pump, hydroton clayton? pebbles, and the rock wool cubes and the 3 inch nest pots. Does any one know where I can get that stuff online?

 

[thedopeman]

if you get 2" net pots then you don't need hydroton, in an aero system it just really stops you getting algae on the rockwool, it doesn't serve any other purpose.

I never need hydroton again now. Waste of money. Rockwool is the only disposable medium i use now. Wish I had learned this lesson way back when i started, would have saved quite a bit in rockwool fees

So if I get the 2" net pots I will not need the pebbles correct?

Thats right you only have to cover over the top of the net pot to prevent algae on the cube.

I don't want to seem like an asshole, but you don't seem to be undestanding this thread.

I think I will stick with the 3 inch pots and the pebbles. I just wish I could find them locally. So they are called Net pots right? I have been calling them Nest pots maybe that is why my local gardening store said that they did not have any. Also it is called Hydroton clay pebbles right?
