This thread is from another forum and has been posted on other forums. I just can't recall if it has been posted on this forum yet. Anyway, I thought this was a novel way of growing a Cephalotus, and might be useful for some future food for thought, for some of the resourceful, experimental growers here. www.cpukforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=34802

I'm one step ahead of you I'll be trying utrics in this setup, as i think they come closest to living hydroponically among cp's, but I am open to any other suggestions, sadly I don't have a spare ceph I am willing to experiment on... dangerous though, cutting holes in the tupperware top... be careful when using an exacto knife!

Got it, thanks for posting Master DVG. hb You're welcome. You never know when a new tool will come in handy in your future operations Dr. Hacker B. Blokeman, I really like to see innovative approaches to CP growing. You should start a new thread in either the Bladderwort section or even the Inside Growing section and make a photolog of your project. It looks quite interesting. And I wonder if a holesaw and a variable speed drill would have cut out those holes more uniformly and safely for you. Holesaws come in a variety of sizes, and you could hold that lid down with a pair of work boots while drilling into a piece of wood. Beats going to emergency for stitches. Good luck with your project and keep us posted on your successes.

Yeah, trying to cut thick or brittle plastic with a razor knife always makes me a bit nervous.
Plastic doesn't have a grain to it, and those blades can slip, break or go on an unwanted runaway in the plastic being cut.
I much prefer to use a power tool to cut through plastic, like a hot knife through butter, whenever possible.
