Aeroponics- roots hitting the mister or fogger

[lokeeca]

ive been doing a lot of research on aeroponic sysystems. every system i see has a mister or fogger about half way down the rez and the aquamist system (which i know is not a true aeroponics system) has a rotating sprinkler. what keeps the roots from getting damaged by the mister or the sprinkler? will the roots be harmed if they hit the water level of the rez? if i let a one week old clone veg for 3 weeks and flower for 2 and a half months how much space will i need for the roots.

I am about to build a similar system, and was curious to the answers here. I have thought of the same questions myself...

Does anyone have an Answer? especially about the rotating sprinkler on the aquamist system

in dwc the roots are fine to go in the res i'd imagine its the same but i use eb flow so not sure. I'd like to make an aero room when i expand.

thanks for your input

If the spray is high flow, low pressure it`ll be like soft rain so no root damage. If its high pressure, low flow there`s very little water, you get a soft mist and again no root damage.
If you have high flow at high pressure (like a firehose) you won`t have any roots
