FAQs

The dimensions of the 18L Square Pot with holes are 29cm outer square rim, 27cm x 27cm internal at rim, and 30cm high.

To use the Two Pot System with Coco, have the 18L pot with holes placed inside the 24L pot without holes. The top pot will drain freely into the bottom pot, keeping the media moist but not saturated. Use a top hat grommet and a 19mm elbow in the bottom pot (24L pot without holes) to form the drainage system. Drain back to the reservoir or to waste. Additionally, consider cutting a custom piece of shadecloth or mesh to line the top pot and prevent coco from falling through the holes in the top 18L pot to the bottom.

Yes, you can use the Two Pot System with Clay Balls. Implement continuous feed through the top pot with a drip feed ring. Use a 25mm Tub Outlet in the bottom pot (24L pot without holes) to drain it back to the reservoir or fish tank. A Tub outlet screen is best to place over the tub outlet to stop clay pebbles from blocking pipes. Consider cutting a custom piece of shadecloth or mesh to line the top pot and prevent clay pebbles from falling through the holes in the top 18L pot to the bottom.

To buy more than one pot, select the 2 x 18L (for two pots) or other multiple options. This will make the shipping price much lower than buying multiple single pots.
