Who is breaking the rules?

If you mean my hydro the roots are in a pint, and the pint is in a Res - totally allowed, I checked ;o)

The other pints are in net cups purely for support as they kept falling over, root's are totally contained I think - will check...

The collar is just to stop the over flow when watering

OK heres Mr Nice Pint grow been trying some weed topiary.......LOL
Was hoping she would streach lik mintys empire states of weed plant but never got close...........LOL
Any ways
I love it, see that flower arranging foam did come in handy ;o)

My 'Empire State' as you put it - is looking a little tall but having to move the light up is potentially stumping the other two;-

For the sake of not wanting to inadvertently 'cheat' I checked the two in net cups and the roots are totally contained within the pints. The bottom 3rd of each pint is filled with pebbles (main one has an air stone in there as well) and the roots have not come outside of those *yet*.

I certainly wouldn't cheat 'like that' on purpose mate and to be honest there is no need, Coco is pretty much hydro so they don't need shit loads of roots outside the pint, just the right nutrients inside.
If you have any alternative tips to keeping the plant vertical I am all up for changing it and I will rethink how I can stabilise them without using the net pots but that is all I had at the time and pretty much all I have at the minute mate.

Totally open to suggestions on how I can keep the pint stable from anyone? And it will be changed for the visibility at least ;o)
