I didn't say I was buying it. Here's the lay of the land.
If I buy the Ultimate system and have to buy a lot of nozzles, tubing, manifolds, and other fittings to set things up, I may as well get the Advance system.
If I buy the Advanced system with 15 'value' nozzles and find out I need some of the premium nozzles I could end up paying well over $500 and having with a bunch of unused value nozzles.
What I need to understand is:
1) What I'm likely to need in terms of the pricier value and premium nozzles.
2) What is the coverage area for a nozzle. I've been assuming a circle with a three foot diameter.

PS I don't know what the Brandon supply debacle is. I order straight through MistKing (Jungle Hobbies). I've ordered a few nozzles and some connectors through Josh's Frogs that were on sale before.

The supply debacle is widespread product shortages causing very high prices, especially on petroleum products (read plastic) and anything electronic due to prevailing economic ceaselessness in Washington D.C.Most Texas Instruments parts and microprocessors are projected to be unavailable until November 2023

Hopefully you're using RO I've so far had no nozzles fail in the past year and a half. Before that, I had a separate tank for mister vs watering tank. Time will tell how they hold up, but I'm happy so far.

I keep a 45 gallon food-grade trash can of it in my greenhouse. The one issue I can see is that it slowly develops find green algae that could plug up nozzles if pre-filtering at the bulkhead isn't top notch.
