Very nice, Geoff!

" my version of hydroponics"--what exactly is that again? I have a couple in semi-hydro, but not sure if we are talking the same thing...miy S/H pots have holes an inch or so from the bottom, and are filled with hydroton. When you water, a small reservoir of water remains at the bottom, supposedly to wick up...is that what you are talking about, or do you have a better technique?
