Working of my very basic and crude Aeroponic System

with 3 comments

Here I will just show you a video of my Aeroponic system. As you can see its very basic, I didn’t want to spend much money to test whether my system works, so I used cost effective materials.

In one of my previous post I explained about how I used Rasberry pi to control the motor. If you haven’t read it, please check that out too.

What Next?

  • From this initial test run, I could see my system is a success. Now I will add more pillars and a high capacity tank.
  • Automate day to day activities. For e.g. I have to add nutrients to the reservoir once in two day. Using a Peristaltic pump and a motor driver I can automate the process with a click of a button from my mobile app.
