Often times the reason you start something leads you to a whole new discovery about the world and yourself.  This is a story about the chasing the AeroDragon.  Its a long one, so stop reading now if you have better things to do.Image Curtesy of AeroDragon Channel on YouTubeAeroponics is by far one of the hardest and most complicated ways to grow plants.  It has been around since at least the 1930s when Israeli scientist and inventor  Ein Gedi started building AeroSystems

First off, let me say that this is not advice on how to kill, prevent or treat pests, fungi, viruses or other areas that are subject to regulation from state and federal governments. This information is for novelty purposes only. I am not a licensed pesticide applicator.Pre-Inoculation is an agricultural concept that typically applies to seeds.  Scientists figured out that seeds can be pre coated with beneficial bacteria in a fine powder. This makes the plants that are direct seed

One of the most common questions I receive is "What kind of Air Compressor do I need", the answer is "It depends".For a single Microfog Atomizer , a starter kit or a Clonefogger most generic air compressors from your local hardware store work just fine. Just be sure to use a compressor that is oil free if you are fogging solutions onto your garden plants.  I personally like California Air Tools for this type of compressor because they are low cost, oil free and relatively qui

The soil food web is the interrelationship of microbes, fungi, nematodes, arthropods, amoeba and cilia along with minerals, sand, silt, clay and organic mater.  This living ecosystem in healthy living soil is very hard to reproduce in a hydroponic or aeroponic environment.  In order to do this the aeroponic systems need to be designed in a way that promotes the beneficial microbes, fungi, etc, while being able to deliver organic inputs to the root zone without negetively affecting root

Dry fog is water vapor that can float in the air for hours and will increase the surrounding air humidity to 99.9%. The size of dry fog can vary between .1 to 10 microns in size. Just for reference, human hair has a thickness of 70 microns and the tip of a sharpened pencil is about 200 microns.Our Microfog Atomizers can create water droplets down to .5 microns which is less than 2 thousandths of one inch. On average the micron range of our atomizers is between 1 and 8 microns.Dry fog has been us
