I built a DIY aerocloner this weekend.
I found the perfect container to fit my veg area. Into it goes a submersible pump that pumps into a manifold
with 8 misters attached.
I used a hole saw to make the openings in the lid and placed plastic net pots with the bottoms cut off into said openings. Foam discs hold the clones in place.
Very happy with the result. It has space for 20 clones.
Im keen to see how quickly the roots form.
I took 3 clones from each plant and defoliated.
Also a DIY net. Id rather buy netting but the growshop only sells netting with a huge pore size.

@nickman I copied this design but used different materials.

He uses pvc I just used normal garden pipe and connectors.
His pump is 1900 litres an hour mine is only 800 l/h but my container is much smaller.

Ive been working the net and the ladies are looking great.
The aerocloner is a success! Roots appearing after only 5 days. Very happy about this. It was fun making it and im glad it works. It leaks ever so slightly but its not an issue.

if you want to use silicon, just do it really light as most people i know do now. 1 drop per gallon (pro-tekt) does wonders, and doesn't mess with your ph very much at all.

Thank you for the kind words and advice. It is much appreciated!!!
So two days ago, after 12 days in the aerocloner, I potted all the clones into coco.
My ongoing battle with fungus gnats has been a losing one. Nothing has worked.
Ive tried:
All failed. My next attempt is home made bags made out of nylon preventing entry to the pot.
I checked on them earlier and there was a fungus gnat sitting on one of the bags. They are such irritating little shits. The area I live in is infested with the things.

Ive tried:
- Layer of perlite
- layer of leca
- Neem drench
- sticky traps
- soap/water traps
- h2o2 drench

If you can find it run hydroguard in your feed for the coco. I run it at 1ml per gal and never have gnats, use it from charging coco right through till 2 weeks before harvest. The 1 time I didn't use it I had gnats. Good luck
