The plants are suspended over a chamber or in a tube which is misted with the nutrient solution every few minutes to keep the roots moist |
The roots are very susceptible to drying out if the misting cycles are interrupted. Blocked misting nozzles can be disastrous if they are not checked regularly. The tank must be checked to adjust nutrient strength and pH. |
