I´m new in this, why do you paint your bottles? Is it a technical way to do things? Could you give some advices now that I´m comming up with this new proyect?… I´m 20 and I´m from Mexico, & I want to know more because my girlfriend and I want to start this new lifestyle. :3
Thanks!
LOL, project is with “j” haha… Sorry, my spanish went out XD
You need to protect the roots from sunlight. If you don´t want to paint you can use tape, knit or sew a cove. I paint because I think it looks best and I already had white color at home.
Good luck with your project I look forward to hear how it goes.

Is there another way to water the plants? I have to say that my economy right now is not the best, but I would like to know if there´s other way… More or less how much is the water pump? Let me know if you have some advices for me :3
Thanks!
@allenstravov I don´t know what an air pump costs in Mexico. Here in Sweden they can be quite expensive. But I bought mine in Uruguay on a market, where it costed less than $ 9. Check in pet stores or if someone is selling second hand maybe you can find a cheap pump.
If it still is too expensive, there are ways to water without an air pump. Look what others have done in the community:

One more tip, next time you have a question read some forum threads first before you ask. Chances are that someone already asked the question and that someone else already answered it.
Good Luck to you!
