Glad I found this thread, Hi
@hyroot its nice to meet you,, I am really interested in the sip containers/ planters, I read up on the octopots as well over and captains thread, watched a bunch of videos, I think i can ask somewhat educated questions now,, lol
what interests me about yours is the DIY aspect , lower cost, and it sounds like your doing water only in the res, which interests me also as my last grow was water only in soil, so am I correct in reading your thread your only putting water down the pipe and into the res and your plants are feeding from the organic nutes in your soil naturally?,,
my other big question is ,,, did you lay down a layer of something to block the roots from going into the res?,, or are you allowing the roots thru and into the res like the octopots do??
thanks for your help
here is the sip build pdf I was using as a guide to build one
