@springer I think those would work well, that thread I linked also talks about the modifications people make to them to turn them into mini-DWC buckets with another air stone and pump for the reservoir, and drilling out the inner pot to make it more like a netpot. I think you’d also be just as happy and maybe find more options for expansion and different methods with an Autopot system, there’s a very active community here of folks who DIY their own to grow in coco and other soilless mediums, you could think of them as a auto watering hempy bucket style if that makes any sense to you.
@GrouchyOldMan @SaintAliasKnife @ifish are all great users to look at their grow logs and see how the system works, they all have it dialed in.
Depending on availability where you are, there’s also a lot of people here loving the FloraFlex Matrix system, which is pretty inexpensive and highly modular, it’s also a great place to get parts for a self-designed system instead of fudging things. Many people have recommended getting a small kit from FF and leaving lots of reviews of the parts of it on their website, with photos and videos. They have a very generous reward points program for that, enough to order more parts and upgrade even!
@Naptown916 is doing a grow with their system now if you wanna watch or ask questions:
Some good coco threads on here to read and definitely look at posts and journals from some experienced coco heads like @CocoaCoir @Dope_Heffalump @DougDawson @HolyAngel lots of folks in some form of coco or coco-based mix here.
