I have an opportunity for another stealth cabinet grow but the design parameters dictate that a drain free pot would be FAR superior to a pot with a drain. I have always grown with a few drain holes in my buckets but with organic soil do I really need them? I am using the square kitty litter buckets for pots and I figured that I would put rinsed perlite and those aqua crystals for the bottom 2 inches then put a supersoil on top and a bit of a cooler soil in the middle/top for the seedlings to get a good start in. I'd start the seeds (Mako Haze) in a solo cup and transplant into the drainless pots. My thoughts are that I'd use a soil probe and water accordingly. Any excess water should be effectively held in my perlite/water reservoir, right? I would be careful and blah blah blah. Thoughts?
