Who This Is For
- Growers managing a single plant who want the growth speed of high-pressure misting without a massive footprint.
- Operators who have struggled with root rot in standard systems and need a highly oxygenated environment.
What We Found
- The silver polymer pipes keep the nutrient solution notably cooler than standard black tubing.
- We tell buyers that the glue-free threaded fittings make system reconfiguration much simpler than PVC setups.
What Users Say
- Owners who upgraded from standard hydro report the misting system reduced their water and nutrient use significantly.
- Growers who previously hand-watered say the Rain Brain controller removed the stress of daily feeding schedules.
Alien Hydroponics AERO System - 1 Pot Kit
Struggling to achieve explosive growth without oversized, complicated equipment? The Alien Hydroponics AERO System - 1 Pot Kit is engineered for growers who demand professional results, delivering bigger yields with significantly less water and nutrients. This high-performance Alien Hydroponics system uses advanced high-pressure misting to deliver an oxygen-rich nutrient solution directly to your plant's roots. This process promotes faster growth, robust health, and impressive yields, making it an ideal choice for tending to single, premium plants or starting a small-scale grow. The innovative design eliminates common aeroponics issues like oxygen deficiency and root clogging, ensuring a smooth and successful cultivation cycle. If you're looking for a larger setup, you can easily scale up with the 2-pot AERO system.
Please note: This kit requires a nutrient reservoir, which is not included. We highly recommend pairing it with a compatible tank like the Alien GardenTank 30 Gallon reservoir to complete your setup.

Attach the necessary fittings to the pots.
2. Connect the System
Use piping to connect the pots and the header pot to establish the recirculating network.
3. Install Air System
Set up the air pump and connect it to the air stones in the pots.
4. Integrate Pumps
Install the water pump(s) for recirculation and chilling (if applicable).
5. Set Up Nutrient Tank
Connect the nutrient tank to the system.

FAQs
What is aeroponics and how does this system work?
Aeroponics is a method of growing plants in an air or mist environment without the use of soil. The AERO system continuously sprays a fine, nutrient-rich mist directly onto the roots, which hang in the air. This maximizes oxygen exposure and nutrient absorption, leading to faster growth and larger yields compared to traditional methods.
Is this system suitable for beginners?
Yes, absolutely. The AERO 1 Pot Kit is designed for easy, glue-free assembly and maintenance. It automates the most critical aspects of feeding and watering, removing much of the guesswork. It's a fantastic way for beginners to achieve professional-level results with aeroponics.
What else do I need to buy to get started?
The main component you will need to supply is a nutrient reservoir or tank. The kit includes all the pumps and fittings, but the tank is sold separately. We recommend the Alien GardenTank 30 Gallon reservoir. You will also need your choice of nutrients and a growing medium for the net pot (like clay pebbles or rockwool).
Can I expand this 1-pot kit later on?
Yes, the Alien AERO system is fully modular and designed for expansion. You can easily add more pots to your setup as your needs grow, connecting them with additional pipework and fittings. You can scale up to 36 pots with the AERO system for a larger operation.
What's the difference between the AERO and RDWC systems?
The key difference is the hydroponic method. The AERO system uses aeroponics (misting roots in the air), which maximizes oxygen. In contrast, Alien RDWC systems, like the popular 1 Pot RDWC Kit, use Recirculating Deep Water Culture, where roots are submerged in a highly-oxygenated nutrient solution. Both are highly effective, but aeroponics can offer faster growth rates for certain plants.
