8 in Mesh Pot Bucket Lid

Turn a Bucket into a Hydroponic Pot Station - 8 in Opening

Building a hydroponic system from buckets needs a lid that holds the plant container steady over the reservoir. This lid has an opening sized for an 8 in mesh pot, so the pot sits securely on top of the bucket while roots reach down toward the solution. Its thick construction keeps it from flexing under a pot's weight.

Sold individually, it suits hobbyists testing a single homemade setup and growers adding one station at a time. Order one lid per bucket when you scale up a build.
