2. Materials Needed:

• Aeroponic System: These systems come with a reservoir, misting system, and supports for suspending the plants. You can purchase a pre-made setup or create a DIY version based on your requirements.
• Potato Seed Tubers or Cuttings: Choose healthy, disease-free tubers. If you’re using cuttings, ensure they have “eyes” from which shoots can emerge.
• Nutrient Solution: This solution provides all the essential nutrients that potatoes need to grow. Specific solutions tailored for potatoes are available, but general-purpose vegetable solutions can also be used.
• pH Testing Kit and pH Solutions: Maintaining the right pH is critical. A pH testing kit and solutions to adjust the pH (up or down) will help in ensuring that the nutrient solution is always at the optimal range for potato growth.
• Net Pots: These containers hold the potato cuttings or seed tubers in place while allowing the roots to grow freely.
