Misting pump set on a timer 2 seconds on two minutes off. The mist sits in the chamber and keeps it around 100% humidityWow! That’s super high psi. What accumulator tank are you using, or pump?

1000psi really? Why? Where did you find nozzles to fit those specs? I don't want to be close to my system and my pumps and nozzles are rated at 100-150psi. Are you blowing holes in the root chambers? Lol! By any chance you mean 100psi?Areoponics is not for the impatient or cheap it cost alot to start and always have to be on top of everything never a dull moment. I'm currently using high pressure 1000psi.
Low pressure works pretty good also just need to change the timing. Definitely is worth it once you figure it out
Yeah 1000psi no problems once in awhile I'll have an o ring leak but i made everything outside the chamber so i can replace if nessary. I'm using. 008 misting tips it's almost like a fog no problems with the roots they will actually try and grow sideways towards the sprayers .I've experimented with alot of areoponic systems and had alot of failures low pressure,square containers, different nozzle sizes i found the high pressure gives the roots very fine hairs. My thinking is more hairs more nutrients absorbed. And the trichromes seem to be bigger and more of them maybe I'll do a side by side comparison and see.1000psi really? Why?

It sounds counterproductive to run higher pressure than what's necessary? It will only decrease the lifespan of hoses, couplings, pumps and fittings.
I bet you would get better results and save on power and materials running lower psi. My two cents, you gain nothing from going above 160psi in HPA.Yeah 1000psi no problems once in awhile I'll have an o ring leak but i made everything outside the chamber so i can replace if nessary.

I mean 1000psi must be borderline Fogponics? That's been tried and you don't only want fine brittle roots like Fogponics creates. You want well developed laterals and fine roots connecting to those IMO.
My goal is to get those fine hairs at the base of the roots but I think i need a wider container the purple light pictures is wider containers but I had issues with the lids so i sealed them with glue so i will have to wait until the end to see the roots.
Looks like they get soaked meaning the nozzles are a little to close to the roots. More like LPA than HPA.My goal is to get those fine hairs at the base of the roots but I think i need a wider container the purple light pictures is wider containers but I had issues with the lids so i sealed them with glue so i will have to wait until the end to see the roots.

It's a problem you'll struggle with that high pressure. You'll need a bigger root chamber and shorter spray times. Do you know the droplet size of the nozzles?
I run sterile so it's hard to keep the fuzzy hairs happy. Your roots look good though! Here's mine a week after transplant. Looks like a mushroom. Maybe I'll try running bacillus amyloliquefaciens as a fungicide when I convert to DTW.
In the 2nd pic.... Do you have some kind of other plant in with the bud? If not, What strain grows leaves that look like that ? Damndest thing I've ever seen.... lol.
