I’ve got the materials for my SIP bucket planter and I’d like to see if you all approve.
I made the aeration screen from a pot that I’m going to use as a bottomless planter. (see other thread) I’ve got 3 - 11.3oz plastic coffee cans that are perfect at 5inches (2.5 cut in half) and 3 fit the bottom as supports. My only sticking point is a question about the wick basket. Since 3 of these cans fit the bottom, can I use one as the wick pot even tho it will be to the side a bit? This would allow me to notch the side of the screen just as with the fill pipe and not have to make the center hole. Any thoughts will be much appreciated.
