the hydroponic net cup with a built-in algae guard

A clean, healthy root zone is the difference between plants that thrive and plants that sulk. Our hydroponic net cups are made from food-grade, antibacterial silicone, with a built-in algae guard that keeps your roots happy and your upkeep low.

They work with deep water culture, NFT and Kratky setups, so whatever system you're running, your plants get the conditions they need. The algae guard blocks the light that algae feed on, which means more of your nutrients reach your plants instead of feeding green sludge around the roots.

Whether it's your first crop or your fiftieth, they make hydroponics easier and a good deal tidier. If you want to dig into the detail, read our guide on what to look for in a hydroponic net pot.

an algae guard that's always there

The algae guard lid is attached to the cup, so you can't lose it. It blocks the light that algae need to take hold, which means more nutrients and oxygen for your roots and a tidier system overall. A custom cutout sits around the stem, so you can lift or adjust the guard without disturbing the plant.

tough enough to forget about

The silicone simply won't quit. You could drive a car over one and it would spring straight back into shape. There are no awkward crevices for gunk to hide in either, so a quick rinse keeps them hygienic, and they're dishwasher-safe when you want a deeper clean.

kind to roots, easy to transplant

The soft, flexible material and a single root channel let roots come free without tearing. Moving a seedling from your hydroponic system into soil stays gentle and stress-free, so your plants carry on growing without a setback.

fits a wide range of systems

Sized for standard 1.5 inch (38mm) holes, these net cups drop into most hydroponic systems. They also fit AO 25/40 tapered Grodan rockwool cubes, so you have plenty of flexibility in how you grow.

fits these gathera products

Drops straight into the heirloom garden, the 2L heirloom planter, and the heirloom basin (used in the sun shelf 3 and the sun garden).

a tighter fit in these

They'll also go into our original grey basins (the ecokitchen, sun shelf 1, sun shelf 2 and family farm), but it's a squeeze. They sit slightly proud of the basin lid, and the algae guard takes a little more effort to press in.

Super easy to use and takes the guess-work out of getting even pressure on the grounds
Size: 58.3mm, Color: Black, Size: 58.3mm, Color: Black
I have been using a hand tamper for many years and have a good idea of the pressure I am applying to the grounds in the portafilter. I honestly considered spring tampers to be a bit silly. But this tamper really does take the guess-work out of pressing the coffee grounds. The shroud helps guide the press so that pressure is applied even and flat across the surface. With the manual tamper, there will be some play when pressing, or some unevenness in pressure. This is especially true when cranking out many espressos during a breakfast party with friends. Having the spring tamper makes quick work of turning out a lot of coffees with consistency. There are no instructions for taking this tamper apart to clean inside, and you may not really need to do that very often. After each use, just pull back the shroud (the black piece that moves up and down) and wipe off the tamper (the shiny steel part). This will help prevent grounds from working their way inside. If you do want to take it apart, it’s easy. Pull back the shroud and unscrew the tamper. It will come apart into three pieces. Wipe the pieces off and reassemble. Super quick and easy. This tamper is very heavy. My scale shows 656 g (about a pound and a half). It fits the portafilter exactly, with no slop. Just place on top of grounds and press!. Don’t even worry about pressure, just push down all the way. Overall I had fun using this tamper versus my manual one. And since I make myself a cappuccino very early in the morning, I don’t have to be very awake to get a good pack on the grounds and get my coffee fast!

Good size
This works for most of the items (powder like cinnamon or beet root, etc.0 i need it for. I would like to have one that is 50 oz. It is airtight and a great product but I'm not convinced pumping it 20-30 times really helps.

Good product/unsure of air seal
We love this to hold our coffee beans, but we aren’t sure if it truly seals air out. It seems to work great though and our beans taste fresh!

Does not hold a vacuum
It does not hold a vacuum. I am able to pump and cause a vacuum where I cannot take the top off without pushing the relief button but give it a few hours and the vacuum is gone. Coffee is stale in a few days and I have gained nothing but the expense.
