My resources are limited but I think it will work !! I have a 3 inch cheap tupperware cup with lid I plan on using for the pots. I have cut 28 holes at 2 and a half inchs and the cups fit perfect. I need advice on how best to make them work ? Cut hole in bottom of cup so the roots can hang out along with the stem and cut a hole in the lid to allow growth. I'm doing a sea of green so the plants will have support that way !!

Anyway I will get pictures after and all advice is welcomed !!

A grow cup should be able to absorb water and air from the sides not just holes on bottom and top. It would be much cheaper to buy netpots for like 30 cents each.

Yes I agree but that isn't going to happen tonight !! I was thinking of drilling like 20 holes from the side to allow water and air to flow !! The sprayers work awesome so the coverage area will be good !!

Any more suggestions ?
