DIY 39 pepper Aeroponic System- EP. 1 (Rails)
EPISODE 1- The first in a series of videos detailing my homemeade aeroponic rail system that houses 39 pepper plants. This video details the rail construction and design and reasoning behind the build. Thanks for watching and please subscribe!!!
*_🐟 🐡🌱This was the first book I purchased when I began Dry Aquaponics gardening System, and I consider this book to be my Dry Aquaponics "bible" now [ Check Details Here >>>_**_https://t.co/Lrwi0vZuTr_**_ ]. It’s generally the first thing I reference if I have unanswered questions, and I’ve recommended it to others who are interested in Dry Aquaponics s._*
On the ends you can always use a rubber inner tube Might Save you on the $36. Bucks
Wow, probably the most complicated but well thought out system I’ve seen. Great design!
Neat system. What spray heads are you using and where did you buy them? Thanks, Joe
Great videos, can you please let us know how many pumps you have used for the 6 rails, what capacity of the pump and the make of the pump. Thanks
Great set up sir! I really want to build a small version (only have room for 6 plants in my little tent) hopefully I dont mess up too bad 🙂
What pressure and flow pump are you using?
The roots have a chance of growing algae with the white PVC that allows small amounts of light to pass through it.
the only problem with these and other aeroponic is the installing of fitting, or at least a better explanation of them. still great vid though–
Use rubber inner tube for the gasket.
What pump are you using to feed your misters?
you just built a nice system. would of cost you big bucks if you were to but premade tube system. sweet.
this is cool. the only thing I do not like is that there seems to be no way to get access to the plants that are not on the edge. You should have left an aisle after every 4 rails so you can walk down the middle.
Love your set up! Would like to make a system like yours. Is there any information you have that you can send me to help my project. If you have a blue plans, list of things to buy or anything that can help me on this journey. Thank you and happy growing.
please do a video about the plumbing!
Can you please email me about your system. I would like to build one in my classroom. mscott40x at gmail.com
is it any different ppm for aeroponic and hydroponic?? , please answer , thanks
This is a nice design.
@jksax914 Nice Setup! What model of quiet one pump are you using? Did you need any additional fittings to connect to the pvc piping?
Is there anyway i can get a parts list and watering schedule from you? I am a new grower but have been doing lots of reaserch on what would be the best way to grow youre system blew all the others out of the water 🙂
Hello, I am thinking of taking the plunge and starting an aeroponic garden. I really like your setup and am thinking of building one like this myself.I would really appreciate it if you could find a minute of two to help me with a couple questions. Thanks and keep up the helpful videos.
Building a barrel system, ordered most of the system today. Did this system ever pay itself off? Are you still doing aeroponics?
Could your system be operated outside?
lthe pipe has lagoon inclination to return the water?
Can I use hydroponic in outdoor?
Can I use soil instead of coco coir etc?
What should be neutrals ratio with water for tomatoes or other vegetables?
This is a very nice system. You made the comment towards the end reguarding the end cover gaskets being rather expensive. I lower cost solution is to run a bead of silicone around the inside of the end cap and ley cure till dry. then use a faucet washer over the nylon bolt from the inside. This will cost you about 2-3 dollars fot the total system. Great videos, keep up the good work.
Instead of a gasket for your end caps you might be able to use a bead of silicone, let it dry and then put your end caps on…. just a thought… what do you think? BTW… nice set up. What are the sprinklers and where do you get them… cost?
Very nice system and an impressive build. I am about to build a 12 post system for a customer and really love the way you did your end caps versus using silicone. I was wondering how bad does that ps frame flex supporting all the weight? I wanted to go with square aluminum and fabricate the frame , but I don’t have the time for that so I am going to use 2x4s. Are your spray heads standard ones like in clone machines or did you get them from the irrigation section at lowes? Thanks for your vid.
Hi – looks like a nice system – a little over-engineered though. do you have an update to comment on how easy this set up was to "garden" with? You’ve covered all the structural challenges but I’m not sure a 6 rail system as you have set up is really practical in terms of tending/harvesting plants. Unless you have access on all four sides which is not space efficient, it would be very difficult for most folks to get to the inner rails. I’m planning a similar system for my green house that is vertical structure 4 rails high and connect to my main reservoir (with 1800GPH pump) that will handle my entire 10×1 greenhouse hydro that includes multiple Dutch buckets – 2 different sizes.
Thanks for the video! Question, do you run this system 24/7, or do you do 1 min on 5 min off or something like that. I will be creating an aeroponics system but it will be out doors in Texas heat soon and I wanted to know about timing the sprinklers… Thanks!
How do you harvest peppers in the middle? Can you reach from the side into the middle of the system?
I know this is an old video, but how did you get the screw 4:56 to hold still and not freely spin as you’re tightening the wing nut?
hi everyone ,if anyone else wants to uncover aquaponics book try Debuncar Amazing Aquaponics Aid (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my colleague got excellent
Nice system n thx for sharing it… have you updated it since?
what other pipes on the side and under rails??? and also could you detail on plant support system
hi everyone ,if anyone else wants to uncover aquaponics book try Debuncar Amazing Aquaponics Aid (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my colleague got excellent success with it
very nice! Thanks for the info.
this is crazy nice. better than any store set ups
Hey, what would you recommend for a nutrient solution?
Very clever and well engineered … but what I noticed is that the plants don’t look that great. Why not grow them outdoors ? Do you have any method of temperature control so the roots don’t get too hot.
The Aerogarden is the best way to grow herbs>>>t.co/XQf2LXinzA . My wife and I were in search of something small that would allow us to grow herbs year round that doesn’t draw too much power; this is that product.
Cool system but damn that must have been super expensive!!!
3:16 Is that a Cuba Libre I see there? Nice!
I really appreciate your showing us all of this! I was thinking: if you wanted to take the time and cut the gasket material into strips, maybe you could find a tube-caulk (economical) adhesive, and make your gaskets from strips. You might also find O-ring material on a roll, or extra-long cheap O-rings you could cut (lids from food-shipping buckets have these sometimes. I wonder if spline for pool-cage screens might work. I’m curious about the nozzles your bought and how much they cost. I’ll watch more of your videos for clues! Thank you!
WOW, best looking system I’ve seen yet, also most complex. Good job with it.
Hate to say this because you made lots of effort. While you might have a great system for growing flowers, this system isn’t constructed of Food grade plastics and you will have toxic plants. A lot of people don’t think of bpa and other things when making one of these systems. I am constructing my own system and paying the price to go with food grade.
BPA is only one nasty by non food grade plastics, It turns into β-glucosides in the plant and is known to cause cancer. I am finding I’m my own system I need to really research every component to ensure even the dripper lines are food grade.
Best wishes!
I congratulate you on your project is very good I hope you do well
What are the end cap gaskets called?
Brilliant system!! Thanks for the info.
