disadvantages of aeroponics
Dependence on the system – A typical aeroponics system is made up of
high pressure pumps, sprinklers and timers. If any of these break down,
your plants can be damaged or killed easily.Technical knowledge required – You need a certain level of
competency in running an aeroponic system. Knowledge of nutrients
amounts required by your plant is essential, because you don’t have any
soil to absorb excess/wrong nutrients supplied.Regular cleaning of the root chamber – The root chamber must not be
contaminated, or else diseases may strike the roots. So you need to
disinfect the root chamber every so often. Hydrogen peroxide is often
used as disinfectant.High cost – Most aeroponic systems are not exactly cheap. Aeroponic
systems may cost many hundreds of dollars each. The most affordable one I
noticed, is still the one by AeroGrow,
a unique form of commercial “aeroponics.” Edit – Some folks point out
that AeroGrow is not aeroponics – I think it is still a great system for
small premises.
