Fogponics is an advanced form of aeroponics which uses water in a vaporised form to transfer nutrients and oxygen to enclosed suspended plant roots. Using the same general idea behind aeroponics, fogponics uses a 5–30 μm mist within the rooting chamber and as use for a foliar feeding mechanism. Plants best absorb particles from the 1–25 μm range, the smaller particulate size means faster absorption.^{[citation needed]} The added benefit of using fogponic's over traditional hydroponics systems is that the plants require less energy in root growth and mass, and are able to still sustain a large plant.
