Update: 4/14/12: Ordered another set of net pots from HydroToYou. These are great and only 3 out of the 36 that I ordered have the UPC stickers on the side of them, and all 3 of them were very easy to remove. The net pots from the original review that had the difficult-to-remove stickers were purchased from Hydroponics Market. In the future, I'll order net pots from HydroToYou because of this. Other reviewers posted negative comments about these net pots not fitting in a 3 inch hole. These net pots will not fit in a 3 inch hole because the width of the top of the net pot, including the lip, is 3 inches. So, if you cut your hole to match the inner lip (easy to do using a template made from cardboard), they fit perfectly and are strong and durable. Would definitely recommend.
Wel ... that just will not do so I popped on over here and began seeking new shoes for his feet. These are perfect. They allow for air circulation and prevent moisture buildup. They arrived on time and after sterilizing one I plopped Junior inside then placed the guys in a schnazzy pot.
Junior is now happy and and ended his strike. His new leaf is growing large and our conversations are now filled with discussions of the orca pod swimming through Puget Sound and the weather.
Yes ... these will do just fine.
A few reviewers have said that hydroton falls through these cups. This is, somewhat, true. The spaces in the bottom and sides are technically bigger than many (about half in my bag) hydroton pieces. So if you just try to dump hydroton into the cups, it will fall out all over the floor.
However, that's not the end of the world. Here's what you have to do to use hydroton with these...
Set the cup down on a flat surface (counter top, whatever). Put your hydroton in.....the friction alone will hold it in. Will you lose one or two stones perhaps? Yes, especially when you pick it up. But no matter, just pick them back up and put them on top or throw them back in your bag.
I had no problem putting several seedlings in these using that method. It also happens to be a problem with net cups I have that have smaller openings as well. It's just a small annoyance.
Otherwise, they're net cups. They're cheap, reasonably well made and yes...you need a 2 7/8" hole saw for these if you're putting them in containers or something. DO NOT try to use a 3" hole saw or you'll be mad as your net cups fall in. Also, grab the 2 7/8" saw online because it's not a standard item carried by most local stores. Good luck!
