Hello there
After your opinions and or advice on some growing I've got planned!
I got one of these Botanica Pots the other day. It looks like a good way to keep the roots moist without over watering.
I thought I could use some plumbing pipe to deliver water straight to the bottom using a small funnel.
Then I can stand it in a sill tray and water until it comes out the overflow.
Have germinated some basil (in front) and leaf salad (lettuce mix) in coir pots which I'm just thinking of planting straight into the trough in their coirs, in this same formation.
(The salad is a bit leggy - one night too long in the headed prop.)
So I'm just wondering how you think this sounds?
And would like to hear any suggestions of other things to try growing in this if you think this isn't perhaps the best use for it?
(I mean I can grow basil in 3" pots right)
Cheers!
