To those who are actually doing this, If you make the water reservoir transparent or opaque enough where light can still travel through. You will run into algae more often. This will reduce the gas exchange within your medium and overall affect the quality of your harvest.
Only problem is that PLA for example has little pores and water leaks through it. That is how I got my wardrobe bending due to the water leaking out. Beware people as this may work on some other surface but not wood or plywood.
diffuse the plastics into your plants by yourself!
Guessing the creator doesn't know Avocado's are not true to seed(The seed in your ex. hos avocado will not grow a hos avocado, to get a hos avocado, you have to graft a hos avocado onto the starter).
Have you had plants die when pinned between the inner window and the storm window? There are plants that won’t get enough CO2 in there between watering.
Sadly the filaments are quite expensive. So even little projects get pricey quickly.
OMG THE DOUBLE WINDOW POTS ARE SO COOOOOOOLLLLL 🤭😭❤️🥺❤️😭
Thanks Bruno
Could you explain the planter on 0:16 of the video? Looks really cool
Honestly the best 3d printing video I've watched. Practical and useful prints all
Thank you 😊
What filament is used for items that needs to hold water like this?
can you make an stl file with a much bigger water tank?
Hi, it's great. I would like to know about the production of pots and how I can have a machine to make pots …
do you have to buy water resistant filament or will pla be fine
SUCH A GOOD VIDEO thank u <3
You realise PLA is HIGHLY biodegradable… You soak it in salty water for a few days and it will begin dissolving, same stuff biodegradable airsoft BB's are made from. Not a great material for gardening. I am not watching this video because i honestly think this is a stupid use of a 3D printer. Buy yourself some clay if you want to make flower pots…
Doesn't water cause bacterias and pathogens to grow in 3d printed materials?
Let the soil dry as much as you can get away with before refilling the sips containers for healthy roots.
The video is really great but the sounds like “asmr” are…
Anyone know how I can 3D print that vertical pot @ 0:13 ?
So many fun projects. Thanks.
My prints don't hold water well, I thought it was hopeless but I guess it can be done!
Escape root
So be carefull about which plants you put in which medium with standing water etc. There is certain plants eg aroids that really don't like their roots to be wet all the time.
It might also create an anaerobic environment which actually stimulates rootrot.
Plants can handle quite some water as long as there is airation/airflow through the medium.
But then still, with plants it's usually safer to under water rather than to overwater!
With self watering planters look up semi hydro which use substrates like ponz leca or perlite for airation and water holding capabilities, but be mindfull that PH of your substrate is also a crucial variable for your plants.
Be carfull of the plant rabit hole
What material are the planters from? I guess it is all PETG?
glad you did this video. i ONLY print for planting.
Yes, this is awesome!
Some people are actually trying to reduce the amount of plastic pollution in the world….
This needs to be said again, do not use 3D prints with anything food related unless you use food safe filament. Most filaments are not food safe.
Superb!
