    I used to run a modded Wilma 8 myself dude. I hand fed mine twice a day until the roots hit the res.

    What layout have you gone for?

    I modded mine to take 6 net pots, could have probably done 8 if I'd have ran them 2x4

    I built a wooden frame for mine to sit on, it was on a slight decline back to front to help with draining the res.

    Hey mate, I would fill the system with my normal 5 liter bottles and when I hit the amount I’ll mark it with s razor so I can feel it.

    Simple bits of 2x2 or something will raise it up mate.good idea with the chiller mate
    Hope it all work out after basically redoing your loft lol

    Ahh fair enough then, you could cut the pots down to half the height if you need extra head room.
