About this model

This is my netcup that i'm currently testing with a Cayenne pepper in a 6l Kratky system. The chili is supported with a ~⌀8mm bamboo stick. I made the versions with the big hole in case your old Netcup broke, for a standard Netcup check out the V2.1 Versions, there is also a classic Version if you dont want to use a plant stake at all. Make sure that the netcup fits somewhat tight in your hydroponic system, so the plants dont tip over. It's designed to be a little more beefy for plants like chilis and maybe even tomatoes. Update 1.8.22: i had some problems printing the "Slitted Versions" with PETG, so i made a V2.1 Version, which is more reliable to print.
