Aeroponics for Cannabis Production

Aeroponics for Cannabis Production Professor DeBacco Aeroponics Basics Plants are grown while suspended in the air with water and nutrients splashed/misted onto the roots. This system uses minimal water and nutrients and if done correctly, with no reduction in plant performance. Aeroponic System Aeroponics involve a reservoir with a nutrient solution and a raised planter bed. The roots are suspended in the air and typically do not make direct contact with the nutrient solution in the reservoir, but have the solution delivered via a mist supplied via a pump Typically plants are started in rockwool or other medium and then placed into the aeroponic system. This system can be used for clones and initially get roots started on the cuttings Advantages The grower has full control of the nutrients delivered directly to the roots of the plants Allows for aeration of root system Efficient use of water No need for growing medium, eliminating this cost and disposal issue Disadvantages Due to the high level of control a growers has and needs to be attentive to this may not be the best option for new growers Careful monitoring is essential this includes nutrient concentrations and also pH values Typically nutrient solutions are changed every 7-10 days The system should be cleaned between grow cycles The plants life depends on the life of the pump With this system, the can be some initial upfront costs that may be prohibitive to some growers Equipment Container with lid Lid will have some form of plant support Inside of container a water pump with misting heads Water monitor Nutrient solution Growing Environment Targets Have a continues water monitor ppm = 700 Temperature = 65F pH = 5.5-6.5 with 5.8 ideal Link to Lecture Slides: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cvXi... 420 Magazine Source Content by Slide Title: Aeroponics Basics https://www.420magazine.com/community... https://www.420magazine.com/community... https://www.420magazine.com/community...
