Correct. The other name is a wicking bed, the container is sealed at the bottom no drainage holes. So water rises up and is only lost through transpiration in theory.
I was thinking about why it has taken this long for sips to gain in popularity?
It's very similar to Ebb & Flow.
I used to do E&F with 6 inch rockwool cubes. 3 or 4 floods a day. A lot of emphasis on daily checking of nutrient reservoir pH.
Dude I wanna see that Cake cut of yours grown out in a SIPIm in. I am a big fan of a good SIP and will be getting back to them sooner than later.
