I normally use a double bucket system. Top buckets have 1/4 inch holes and drain into lower bucket which has 1 1/2 inch barb drain fitting. Roots sometimes make it down there and clog the drain up causing overflow and a huge mess. I was thinking to try putting weed matting down there or something to prevent it. Also thinking to try and just use the lower bucket by itself The old ones are leaking and I was thinking about saving money on half the buckets.
Any other ideas to keep the roots from stopping up the 1/2 inch barbs?
edit: scratch that single bucket idea i cant have the roots sitting in water anyways.
