How many of those are u fitting on a 4x4 table?

you can get 36 easy i went the cheap route and got circle and can only fit 25 now, the squre shape really gives more sq ft i would go with square in future but those pots add up when you getting into 72+

Do u hand water yours or how do u go about that

i flood and drain. with a timer. if i had lower cieling like you i would look into drippers but if your running high plant count adding all those lines can be a hassle. if you get a low profile res you can flood and drain imo easier.

Since I see you are using Home Assistant. You can make a CO2 monitor with an ESP32 and a MH-Z19 sensor, and record and read CO2 in Home Assistantā€¦

I used this sensor:
MH-Z19B Infrared Carbon Dioxide Monitor Sensor

And a basic ESP32:
ESP32 ESP-WROOM-32 Development Board

I 3D printed a case for mine, but an electronics project box may work. It seems to be pretty sensitive, and works well. I could send you my ESP32 code and wiring diagram for this if you were interested. Its like 3 or 4 wires IIRC, the sensor harness has more than you need, I just used simple jumpers. I also used some ESP32s for temp / RH sensors, but honestly like my Goveeā€™s better for that as they have a display on them, have battery vs USB power, and also integrate with HA.

High water tables SUCK. I have a full basement. Of the 218 houses in my lake community, only THREE have full basementsā€¦ For a REASON! Mine is an older home, built long before most of the others. Growing up, I always had a wet basement if it rained, even WITH a sump pump. Maybe 15 years ago I added a second sump pit / sump pump on the opposite side of the basement. First time in my life I had a dry basement. If you have good drainage under the house, and put in a sump pit thats 30-36" deep, it will help keep the water table under the house low enough to have a dry basement. MAJOR benefit for little cost but some hard work.

You guys got a lot going on. Co2 is nice. Fungus blocks work ok. I used something back years ago. It was something frozen. Iā€™m sorry I cannot remember. Itā€™s not what you might think. I found this working at mills. Iā€™ll find out.

dry ice? Itā€™s entirely carbon dioxide.
