learn a new thing....cant hurt to try .....why cant you just stick the pots to the bottom and tie them into your flood AP system ? getting time to replant the strawberrys anyways ....so a few should be sacrificed in the name of debogus
So I have the little terracotta pots and the gorilla glue......so I do this....Image

I'm not sure about the question? Some people might not like the use of glue to secure these, kind of depends on where someone draws the line. Don't see any problems with getting them to work but it might depend on the media in your bucket.

Kinda-gotta-work..... except.... if super fines and Bio material clog the pores of the pot over time..

I would also be curious if the general pressure of the inflow would cause saturation of the lower media..

Bottom line.. worth the try... :-)
