I didn't really know that the water droplet size made that much of a difference. I can't really get new sprayers so the ones I've got will have to do the job.

My System also uses a sprayer and it seems the hydron clay balls were being staurated just fine, I wouldn't worry about that.

As for the lights, I had a 125W cfl "blue" spectrum for growing and it just didn't cut it for about 6 plants, I added 4 smaller bulbs, 2 RED and 2 BLUE (normal CFL's) and the change was immediate. The plants just shot up. Was great.
