So, now that the last grow finished - the first time I used Smart Pots and was amazed! - I thought about a solution for the next grow not to water that often, but still have the root pruning effects...
I could have taken some buckets - like the Hempy Bucket - and drill a lot of holes above the 2 inch mark... but I already have the Smart Pots, so I decided to take perfect fitting kitchen bowls as a tank, drill a "Hempy Bucket" - hole at 2 inch, fill the Smart Pots with a drainage layer of hydro korrels of 2 inch, above that the 50/50 Coco/Perlite-mix, give this into the bowl, and.... voila:
"The Smart hempy Bucket"
I hope that one plus of this modular setup is, that I can take of the tank in late bloom to avoid mold and be able to flush the girls without the rest in the tank...
