I have a terraponic bed that I inherited, but I use blumat, I only have 3 blumat cones and with a desire to grow more than 3 plants, to fill up the terraponic bed and I do not want to purchase more cones, I also do not want to have a pump going all the time because of the power bill. Is there a way to just have a watering system used with this terraponic bed and blutmats?
The best idea I can come up with is to have the blumat cones in the terraponic bed with the bed filled with hydroton and the cones planted in the hydroton, then fabric pots planted in the hydroton and when the hydroton is too dry the blumats could then feed into the hydroton till the cone gets wet enough with feed to stop.
Anything better please? Many good Karma Vibes.
