Ultrasonic hydroponic fogger

Ultrasonic hydroponic fogger

An ultrasonic hydroponic fogger is a device that emits nutrient fog in a hydroponic system. [Birnbaum H, 2007. Homegrown Hydroponics]

It usually sits below water level, and fills the root zone with highly oxygenated fog mist. Water particles are 5-15 micrometres in size. The hanging roots absorb the water/nutrient combination for accelerated growth in hydroponicly grown plants. Turns a hydroponic system into an aeroponic hybrid system.
