Test packing.
Semi moist…Lightly packed. Bottom net pot a little firmer pack.
35% Coco
15% Tupur coco
50% Perlite

Surprisingly nothing dropping outta the cone.
Easy to swap out just the bottom res if needed for cleaning or nute changeout. Just need to have an extra micro Octo kit on hand.
The float level dealios seem really fragile. May cobble up a replacement…for when I break one.

Soon after the pic above…I had started smoking that joint…put it down on the table to F with my cell phone. Never to be seen again - the wind blew it off the table. I looked but could not find the MF.

This solves my spill paranoia. Found my narrow tray. 41" x 10".
6gal Octo will have the cob and or led array overhead to the right. I’ll train the future Octo monster within up against the wall.

What is coco vs Tupur coco?

Cobbled this low-tech overflow drain outlet.
Should drain only if I overfill.
Anyone ever suffer from Octo-overflow?

It’s mostly coco.
I just had some laying around.
“soilless mix called Tupur, which contains coco fiber, aged forest materials, perlite, and basalt. It was designed with the idea of feeding the plants as much and often as possible, and it can be watered up to 6 times a day without overwatering, which makes it ideal for grows with automated watering systems.”

Very close to 1 gallon in the res. Maybe a touch over a gallon.
Or do you need measurements? Roughly 10" square.

Using net pots.
The bottom of the net pot is about one inch from the bottom of the res.
