Aeroponic Spray Intervals: The hydro-atomized spray interval
(time between nutrient applications) and the duration (length of time
of the spray application) are controlled by the system's Control Unit.
This patented process utilizes high water pressure to deliver
water/nutrients/auxins to the plants in the aeroponic chamber.
The hydro-atomized spray fully surrounds the plants in the chamber(s).
The force of the spray literally cleanses the plants keeping them
fresh and turgid causing them to develop rapidly. The spray interval
provides the oxidation period necessary for primorida root development.
The spray duration provides the necessary moisture and nutrient level
necessary for plant bio-mass development when proper levels of light
and temperature are maintained.
The spray interval and duration can be adjusted for the specific
environmental requirement of the plants being grown in the aeroponic
system.
KOZAI 1992. Micropropagation under photoautotrophic conditions.
Plants, in general, have relatively high photosynthetic ability
and they may grow faster in some cases under photoautotrophic
conditions than under heterotrophic or mixotrophic conditions,
provided that the physical and chemical environments in vitro
are properly controlled for photosynthesis.
