I just changed my system over from DWC to psuedo-aeroponics (just using sprayers to spray the roots, not true misters).
I have a sprayer head in each bucket and have had some trouble with leaks. I was thinking about just putting drip emitters on the top of my hydroton/net pots and letting the water drip onto the roots from above rather than spray them from below.
Does anyone have any comments about this? Has anyone tried both methods, and if so, noticed a difference?
I wouldn't imagine it would make a difference because the water would still be getting to the roots. The only difference I can see is that the sprayers probably create somewhat of a mist when the water hits the walls inside the bucket and breaks up. I don't know how much mist is created or if it even makes a difference.
