- You are adding an automated delivery system to your setup because you want to stop hand-watering while ensuring your roots get consistent nutrient exposure.
- You are switching to an aeroponic method because you want to maximize plant growth and save water by delivering mist directly to the root zone.
- Using the copper drain covers is important because they keep roots out of the pipe network to prevent blockages.
- Growers who set up the system with an aisle report that they no longer have to reach over one plant to get to another.
- Users who implemented a water chiller in their reservoir say they notice far less pathogen growth on their roots.

By delivering a fine mist of nutrient-rich solution directly to the root zone, this advanced aeroponics system promotes explosive growth and can increase yields significantly. It's incredibly efficient, using up to 95% less water than soil-based gardening. The innovative design eliminates common issues like poor oxygenation that can stunt plant growth, ensuring your garden thrives. Whether you're a seasoned grower or just starting, this kit's no-glue, tool-free assembly makes getting started with aeroponics easier than ever. For growers needing a different size, Alien offers a range of configurations, from a compact 4-pot system to larger setups.

FAQs
Aeroponics is a method of growing plants in an air or mist environment without the use of soil. The AERO System works by suspending plant roots in the air within the pot and spraying them with a fine, nutrient-rich mist at regular intervals. This maximizes oxygen exposure and nutrient absorption, leading to faster growth and larger yields.
Yes, absolutely. The Alien AERO System is designed for easy, tool-free assembly with no glue required. The comprehensive instructions and simplified maintenance make it an excellent choice for those new to aeroponics, while still offering the performance that experienced growers demand.
The kit is nearly all-inclusive. The main item you will need to supply is a nutrient reservoir or tank. We recommend the Alien Hydroponics GardenTank series, which is designed to integrate perfectly. You will also need your preferred growing medium (like clay pebbles), nutrients, and pH testing equipment.
The AERO system is incredibly water-efficient. Because it recirculates water and delivers nutrients via a fine mist, it can use up to 95% less water compared to growing in traditional soil mediums, making it a more sustainable and cost-effective option.
Yes, all Alien Hydroponics systems are designed to be modular and expandable. You can reconfigure the layout or purchase additional components to expand your system up to 36 pots, allowing your setup to grow with your needs.
The main difference is the hydroponic method. The AERO system uses aeroponics (misting roots with nutrient solution), which provides maximum oxygen exposure. In contrast, Alien RDWC systems use Recirculating Deep Water Culture, where roots are submerged in a highly-oxygenated nutrient solution. Both are high-performance methods, but aeroponics can offer faster growth rates.
