Hollyweed is beginning to sprout.

Hey Stonney,

I built this little aeroponic fogger about six months ago but haven't tried it out yet. I used an ultrasonic fountain fogger that I purchased on Ebay for about $27. The fogger works best when it's submerged in about 2" of water so my design took that fact into consideration. The pump is a Rio 50 the smallest one I could get my hands on. The whole idea is to just keep the fogger submerged at all times with your nute solution. The pump slowly fills up the bottom cylinder and seeps up through the holes I've drilled in the top chamber. The parts are just different plastic containers I found around my house. I stick the "Hollyweed Haze House" (or H3 for short) in one of those large Rubbermaid containers that everyone uses for their aeroponic units. I add enough nute solution to cover the pump… the whole thing fogs up really well with the cover on. I'm not sure if it's enough to sustain a crop, though - but it might be fun to try. I think the baby plants would have to be hand watered until roots were showing through the net pots. I'm still trying to get the hang of my new aero unit so I'll probably try out the "H3" when I'm finished with my present grow.

Best,
Hollyweed
