Has anyone tried these hydro pots?

They are available in alot of sizes, and seem like easy maintaince, not bad price either. See em at botanical brothers.com

I haven't seen those yet. In my opinion and with the different type of hydro setups that i have done I have had the best results yield wise if you give the roots the most working water meaning water is constantly running through the root ball or circulating throughout the root ball. I would highly recommend using DWC or a NFT system if you want something low maintenance high yielding and is easy to build.

I kinda like them because I'm currently tight on space, and there are no pumps/plumbing, timers, or big Res. to deal with. Just wonder if u have to use soil, or if i can use hydroton, and if you could put young plants in there with roots that wont reach the bottom.

I have one of these pots, it came with my bloombox. It said to use Coca, or however you spell it. It is pretty simple to use, but it is a little small for a full flowering plant. Maybe 1.5 gallons. Works great for a mother plant though.

I remember the same type of pot being popular for houseplants about 25 to 30 years ago.

Marketed under the name of "Luwassa".

Cool buckets but I don't want to run a dozen of them.
