Default solo cups

Fellow Hydro's, I've just assembled a basic 9 plant hydro garden (The one with the upside down 2litre bottles cut in half). My question is how do I arrange everything in the upturned 2 litter bottles?
How do I use solo cups? How do I place the young plants in the 2 litter bottles? All help will be
greatly appreciated, Bart.

Hi Bart
You can arrange the pvc grid/bottles anyway you like as long as they are the same height and you have an intake for the pump and an overflow to control the height of the water.
The solo cups with holes in them sit in the bottles to make the plants removable so you can clean your garden.
You can then take bedding plants or any size plant that you think the roots will fit in the solo cup after you have washed the dirt off or other growing medium from the plant roots.
You can even take some plants (especially herbs and spices) and cut the plant into a few plants and
then place them in the solo cups. That's the fast method to fill your garden.
Ron
