I've wanted to try an aerocloner for a long time, so i finally built one. Considering the time and gas,etc, to go buy the parts in town, I just ordered the spray bar assembly from ebay. Cost me $13.40 shipped, I could barely build it for that! I had a pump, netpots, neoprene inserts, a bucket, and a timer.

I used a 2" (12cm ) hole saw and cut 9 holes in the lid. I cut the baskets off the netpots and fit them to the bucket, along with the neoprene inserts.

I have no idea the flow of the pump. I got it new, along with 2 other pumps, 3 air pumps, tubing and other parts on ebay for $22.00 shipped...........about 4 years ago lol!

The pump was threaded but for 3/8" not 1/2" so I wrapped the provided hose nipple with a layer of electrical tape and pressed it into the fitting on the pipe. Put water in the bucket and set the pump and spraybar in.Gave her a test run and good to go!

set the bucket in my tent and put my Ducksfoot clones in it ( and a tomato cutting ). Timer is a cheapy so it only doesn't 30 minute intervals. I've got a short cycle timer on order so that I can run it 2 minutes on, 15 off.

Just checked on the clones, they seem to be doing fine. I'm not holding my breath though.......... Ducksfoot is the most obnoxious strain to try to clone ever...... and my whole reason for building this.
 
I haven't actually done that yet, too many other projects took up the time. I do still intend to do that though. I think I going to wait till I've made some fem seed of my strains, then I'll pack a tent full!

Hey @pop22 how's project with big plastic tray and autovalve?
 
Update:

Woooooo Hooooooooo! They are still alive! A couple are yellowing a bit though so I mixed up a batch of Optic Foliar spray. You all know me, I don't buy into most of the junk out there thats suppose to be good for your plants, but after having done a Cannazone test of Optic Foliar, I'm convince of it worth, at least for plants that are sick or struggling. So I gave the clones each a thorough spraying and will each day for the next week.

I'm tempted to look in the bucket but I know its really too soon lol!
