Ohhhh cool! Aeroponics is something I'm not really familiar with yet. Definitely interesting stuff though. I'm sure there will be a day I will fall into that rabbit hole hahah.

Fair, still a nice setup anyways, and I’ve seen plenty of printer setups inside of tents for temp consistency already haha

Hahah yeah that was the idea. It's basically just a big printer enclosure for now. I also like that I don't need much to light up the room enough for my camera feed to be usable 😂

I couldn’t quite automate my soil setup the way I wanted, so I took the plunge into the cheap version of aeroponics. The better one requires a $150 pump and a bladder tank as well, it atomizes the droplets to the optimal size that nasa found was the best method for growing (in space).

Hahah cheap is good in my book. I'm a junkie for jank.

That's really cool though, thank you NASA researchers. Hey at least you're not growing space weed, yet! Your plants seem really healthy so your cheap setup seems to be doing it's job well enough!
