Cheapest most effective aeroponics system?

[kinesis]

Anyone have some good plans? I was looking at the Sunleaves Garden of Ease and this:

but before i get one of those i'd rather try to build my own if you think i can make it cheaper...

im just gonna buy the ebay one... looks solid, has mounts for your light, etc. i have no concept of aeroponic design and nobody has posted any good plans with what to buy so whatever... It's only like $115-$120 bux after s/h for the ebay system and it comes with all you need... that brings the total ive spent on my materials to about $325. The price of an ounce. I still need a couple fans, air stone + pump + pinesol (ghetto fab deodorizor method), vicks vapor inhaler and hygrometer/thermometer, and mylar and im done =) oooo and clones... 6 clones which i can get at my dispensary in LA =)

I agree with Karl, build your own. That thing is a piece of crap.

Look at the pic, it doesn't even look like they have much pressure running through that hose, probably a cheap pump and not truly aero (ie: AeroFlow). You need a good pump at a high pressure to get the proper mist that makes aero so good.

You can buy fence posts at local home improvement stores, that's all that ebay kit used.

If you do buy that setup, modify it to have an actual decent aero system, that thing is basically look liks drip/nft, not aero/nft which is what they're claiming.

for real that shit is nice. Id buy it if I needed it. That is cheap, once you account for time spent building one yourself. Those are easy to build though...

It's an Ein Gedi system in the "how to hydroponics" book, which btw is a good book to own.

At least he's not ripping ppl off. If seen crapier systmes for WAY more money. WAY WYA more, like 300 more.

Ive built my ownsystmes and they take time, then once theyre all together, you need to tweek them. Find out the GPH and PSI on the pump, if you dont like it, purchase a larger one. Trust me, you can alwyas use extra water pumps lying around. I had 2 extra ones, now I use them all, just build shit on a whim, and bam I already have a pump, and peppers now growing.

should i just go with the garden of ease? it's only supporting 4 plants but i think only 3 because the high nutrient demands of cannabis... it mentions tomato plants can only be grown about 3. It's rated well on the High Times 2007 Hydro Report

here's the sunleaves garden of ease::

Unless someone wants to part by part tell me what I need to buy I am going to just buy a kit, i've no clue what I am doing and don't want to buy everything and have it be a total waste.

also the ebay guy has decent feedback and is based in norcal I think they know about aeroponics up there, correct me if I'm wrong but isnt norcal the mecca? ^^

Ill ask the ebay vendor about his pump, what questions should I ask? Maybe I can weed him out if his system is junk...

o shit... I just checked his feedback and saw this:
"ALWAY A PLEASURE TO DEAL WITH THIS TROOPER, A TRUE COLLECTOR, UNTIL NEXT TIME!!!"

Im not buying any aeroponics systems from any troopers..... fuck that
