I would think it would work with any. All I can say is when I started using it i no longer had a need to support the branches. It makes for strong plants.

I use a screen. Silica is a good recommendation as well. I've also seen people cut the legs off of a tomato cage and sit it on top of the bucket.

Yes but what I'm saying is you dont need it if plant has a proper nutrient regiment. I just jarred up 2 plants that I had in dwc buckets in 2" netpots with only 4 small lines tied to trunk to keep stabilized. They were maybe 28-30" tall but yielded over 7 ounces and the branches stood proud with buds and no supports.
