I don't think this is an issue. I was talking to the guy at the hydro shop, and his EZCloner had 12 of the little red sprayers, and a 550+ gph pump...
As long as there aren't any leaks, I think you'll be fine.
How tightly do your sprayers fit into your pvc pipe? Mine didn't fit so tightly and had water running out underneath. Before I sealed the lid with silicone, I put a ring of silicone under each of the sprayers to see if I could increase the pressure a little.
I just finished making a 16 site aero/vegger with aznshroomer's tek. I'm going to use it to flower a small SOG as soon as my fan and filter get here in a couple days...

yep the Guy at the store hooked me up with the pump and spray heads so I know I got a good match for my bucket. I have no leaks. My heads fit tight. I just wonder should they be allowed to dry some. It looks like the tips are starting to turn brown. Should I add some hydrogen peroxide. Temps between 70&80.

hi just building your setup looks good , do you leave pump running 24/7? and do you need any air intake into the system?

Yes 24/7 seems to work out just fine. Air stones aren't needed, and you should change the water at least every two days.

I haven't changed my cloner's water in three weeks. With such a low PPM, there's not all that much to screw up as long as your temps are under control.
I made the mistake of leaving a 500GPH ecoplus pump on 24/7 and it made the temps way too high. Ten days, no roots, rotting stems. Put it on 30/30 and three days later, they all rooted. Now that they have rooted, I'm just vegging them there and I have the pumps on 30 and off 60.
Awesome shit, but be careful if you're running 24/7.

PEX Setup [Re: HippoSex]

Do you think using PEX and brass fittings would work? Alot easier to build using zero pvc or glue.

Why can't I use this "cloner" to take the plant to fruition. And if its the dimensions that are too limiting, then would it be possible to build a unit that was capable of taking the plant from tiny plant thing to fruiting plant thing. camplo
ps- here I was thinking I was all cool and original. Your design is exactly what I was dreaming up. Nice work.

I use a bucket, same setup.. never found a decent seal for tubs that didn't leak water somehow..
also, im considering doing away with the net pots their fucking pointless, just make the hole a little bit smaller so you can put just the neoprene piece in.
other then that, same shit different day.. fun project, for $50 you can get a 14 site cloner bucket setup and running.
