Foggerponics?!
    #7963728 - 02/01/08 07:44 AM (16 years, 16 hours ago)

If there is numerous threads on this I apologise, I tried a search but very new to this forum and still getting the hang of it.

I'm currently trying to upsize my proporgator from a small fish tank to one of those little shelved indoor plastic greenhouses, I have a hydroponic light that i'm happy with and I'm heating it with a tray of water with fish tank heaters at the bottom but I have found that the soil on the top shelves get quite dry, I have got one of those little vivarium mist makers that you see on ebay with the disks in them-

I wanted to put the mist maker in a bowl at the top with a little computer fan to blow the it around on a timer and maybe from time to time put nutrients it it.

The seeds or seedlings I will move across from the fish tanks are-
mimosa hostillis
mimosa verrucosa
Leonotis sibericus
voacanga africana
datura nanakai
psychotria viridis
entada reedi
calea
banisteriopsis caapi
catha edulis
sceletium tortuosum

What does anyone think? will this work?

I think I read somewhere that PH is affected by the foggers but I can't find much more about it.

for all the trouble you could use seedling trays with lids and heat mats.

What you're talking about is called lo-pressure aeroponics. Read the Wikipedia article on Aeroponics.

FutureGarden sells a ready-to-use aeroponic system that uses foggers, but it's not effective, AFAIK - at least not for the plants you're growing. The mist doesn't have enough pressure to penetrate the roots, so when they get big, the middle of the rootball will dry out.
