Hey guys, sorry if this is a repeat question.

Im thinking about switching over my hydro cloner into a fog cloner but Im confused as to what I actually need.

Figuring clone buckets under 5 gallon (1 or 3 would be the norm).
What size pump would I need and what kind of heads should I be looking at?

Thanks a bunch guys!

I've built one in my sig with GREAT success, actually best success I've had to date as far as
root quality and time it took. Thing rooted ultra fast!

You don't need a pump with the fogger, it's simply a little round device that plugs into the wall.
There are "floats" you can get to go with them and I *highly* recommend getting one. The foggers
work by being at a VERY certain water level, about 1/4" "strikezone" for this to happen properly
and the fogger keeps this in check perfectly.

I used my fogger with no nutes, just ph balanced RO water and had roots showing within 5 days,
running no nutes is key to longevity of the fogger unit as the discs can become calcified from the salts
in the nutes and can fail.

Bucket size is up to how many sites you want and how much fog your unit actually produces.
I was able to do something like 25 site in a rubbermaid 8gallon tote fairly
easily, and you don't need to worry about leaks since there isn't really a spray.

Definitely a great way to get the job done.
