“Problem 1 is the nutrients form salts, crystallize, and clog the jets.”


If there is no calcium ions, this is not much of a problem. But the promises of the device are most probably overrated. Added the mention “climate change” and every sane bs detector should ring loudly.
- Claims that finer mists would give a boost to yields compared to much simpler, proven, more robust and cheap ultrasound mist generators are preposterous as long as there is no data to support it. Is the yield boost enough to make the system viable, nobody knows since there is no number, just claims. Aeroponic is well known for sometimes now for its high yields, still it has never supplanted hydroponics or soil planting, there must be some good reasons.
- Emphasizing the production of potatoes instead exclusively marketing high end and high margin products such as herbs or fresh vegetables is putting the ox before the cart, it’s silly and tells something about the inventors’ lack of basic common sense.
- The tunnel system is just window dressing. If it is needed in the marketing of the main invention (the mist generetor), it should raise big suspicions.

...

I know mine did.

And if this technology were really as good as claimed they’d be looking to quietly use it themselves, rather than doing press releases saying they are going to license it.
