Anyone know what to use to elevate plants besides cinder blocks?

I need to elevate my dwc hydro plants and keep them there. I’m putting in a scrog net today and flipping to flower.


I’ll need to drain the buckets and refill weekly without moving them around too much. The only thing I can think of is a cinder block but on the off chance someone knows of some kind of plant risers or something else that works good I’d really appreciate it. Hope everyone is having a good staff to their week.

I used those garage shelf situations. Works perfectly because they’re super customizable.

Bottom shelf of one of these

Amazon Basics 3-Shelf Adjustable, Heavy Duty Storage Shelving Unit (250 lbs loading capacity per shelf), Steel Organizer Wire Rack, Chrome (23.3L x 13.4W x 30H) https://a.co/d/cfxt6mQ

This is my set up. 2 tents in one room (one 2x4 and one 5x5)


How high of an elevation is that shelf ?Can you adjust it to any height? @yourviolentpast this is might work for me perfectly if so

Wire shelving from the home improvement store work great. I’ve been known to use an old floor Tom because of how adjustable they are… as long as you need that much height

I use these. You might be able to find them cheaper at your local hydro or gardening store.

The plant tops look fairly even, just curious as to why the pot risers? :love_you_gesture:

I have it about 8 inches up. They are very adjustable to any height!

I’m putting a scrog net up, I just flipped to flower so I’m just planning ahead for the water changes once the plants are tied up into the net.

I found a plastic pallet 4 inches high fits inside 4x4 tent and it has holes in it i hàve tupperware trays under the pallet cacthes runoff. I can slide 5 gallon pots aroùnd to tend to them no lifting at all

Try those old milk plastic crates.allows air under and off the floor. And lighter. lol

@spudeater65 …are you guys making those nets or buying them?

I’d say 99% of us buy trellis nets.
