Grow Mediums aeroponics for autos and photos?

[evol]

I am going to buy an aeroponic system in a week or 2 when my tax $ comes and have never grown in hydro/aero only soil. I was wondering what the best aeroponic system would be for both autos and photos? I was looking at one with 8 holes on htg but the holes seem too close together for photo plants but it looks like it would do well with autos.. I want to grow both in the same system is it possible?

I would like to only spend between $200 - $300
thanks in advance for any advice

Ok since Nobody chimed in, I will.
Aeroponics work really well if you have it dialed in.
Lots of air in the nutrient mix, cool water, low ambient temperature.
This is not something that you want to do if your Environment is not stable.
I built my system, it was a Hybrid of Aero and NFT.
Grew like freaking mad.
I think that you would hamper the Auto's in a 12/12 blooming cycle.
I seem to recall they need All the light they can get
Your yield might be reduced if you use them in a photo bloom room.
Not saying bad, less.
Not only that, plants need different nutrient levels.
I went back to soil...much easier
Just my 2..
Good luck

so maybe I would be better off growing autos in aero and sticking with soil for photos or vice-versa. I'm really intrested in aeroponics so I'm going to give it a shot.

I agree. Aero for autos, soil for photos.
Good plan there Evol.
Hope my post helped at least a little.

i am currently in the process of making my own aeroponic system and to be honest im scared shitless that i will fuck something up...
i am going to buy a grow tent for indoors with a 250 watt HPS, carbon filter for smell, a few intake fans, and the aeroponic reservoir itself.
the only thing that i am really scared about would be the amount of nutrients and the correct levels of Ph, EC, and TDS. if someone could help me out, it would mean a lot.
thanks
