Lighting Micro growing and air pots

[Rouxdy]

I've seen micro grows in jiggers and solo cups... even the yogurt cups... I'm thinking about trying a soil grow with the smallest air pot. .3L ... 4" x 6" tall.

It would work good for my space and I would be growing something that doesn't get much taller than 12"'s...

I've done 3 hydro grows and I really love the simplicity, but, the aquarium pumps and their noise (yes, even the best ones are audible) makes it really hard to make it truly stealth.

I could make my own container, but I think the small air pots might work.

Any thoughts?

Love Airpots. Somewhat annoying when watering because of the holes but I still love them. And as far as I know, the smallest ones made are 1L's, roughly 32 ozs. I have one that I start plants in. Really easy to transplant because you can just take out the holder screw and unfold the pot to get the whole thing out. Good luck with your grow.

I grew a plant 1.2 meters tall in a 3 litre airpot mate,I'd say unless you have genetically small plants either use regular small pots or some lst is needed as the airpots can grow big plants.if you were to use 1 litre airpots you will be watering at least once or twice a day,they dry out real quick bud :group:

The drying out quick thing would be a problem if I were to be out of town for a few days.... I wonder if they could sit in a plate full of water for 2 days?

Iam in the same boat, with 21" of head room including pot but not light. I plan on using durrty dragon whick i got last year. I have a very stealthy grow and i must say I have never seen one quite like mine.

run a pump into a jug with a hole in the bottom to feed out over a 3 minute period

Yeah, you can put a pot in water to keep it moist over a long weekend...basically that's the concept with the Hempy Pot. It's like a ghetto DWC rig, lol.
