Aeroponic Growth Chamber / Root Chamber - How to Choose the best chamber. Part 1



Aeroponic Systems – The Growth Chamber:
What you need to know to choose the right Growth Chamber for your aeroponic system.
In a true high-pressure aeroponics system, plants are grown in a chamber. The plant roots are suspended/hanging in space inside the growth chamber where they receive their nutrients and water through a fine mist. This means that roots can get larger and more easily absorb nutrients and oxygen. There’s less chance of root zone disease because there’s no material for debris or pathogens to reside.

  1. You mentioned all the flaws of many grow chambers, but you didn't point out who is actually making these chambers the best. Can you provide some recommendations? Have you looked into 3d printing a chamber? If 3d printing can't produce a container of a large enough volume for aeroponics how can you make one? modular parts? Otherwise what are your options for custom containers beyond injection moulding.

  2. What are your views on bacterial and fungal innoculants in the root zone? Do you think they keep unhealthy microbes to a minimun? I've been using a spray bottle directly on the roots.
