for me they just didnt draw enough air to be of use. in my small cabinet heat builds up too much so i had to use an inline fan to pull it out of the cab. hehe i have tons of fans laying around, enough for two boxes for sure.

I am in love with your box idea, if i ever grow in soil, i plan to use your grow as a pattern. then i can use the pc fans to vent it.

Roots will pass through it just fine. You will see them looking like little white maggots coming out the side then they slowly die. But It's healthy for the rest of the roots inside the pot. I had no idea that certain Felt was made of 100% recycled plastic bottles, until I started buying smart and root pots. There is a stiffer form of felt that comes in pre-cut sheets. I use that for the base. Also I have to add a picture, but i usually cut out a circle of CocoFiberMat. You can get it from walmart or home depot. I use a disc of it as extra drainage and support.

It's time for me to post some pics again. My girls are doing well but I did have a seedling die on me. I had to throw out a whole batch of soil. For some reason it went moldy on me. I think I will leave the top off of the container its in this time.#4day54.jpg#9day24.jpg#7day44.jpg#4day54top.jpg#6day46.jpg#3day32.jpg#8day41.jpg#10day24.jpg
