Can I Use Potted Plants/Seedlings Started In Dirt?

Absolutely! If you’re transplanting from soil, be sure to wash off as much of the dirt as possible and inspect your plants closely for insects before adding a store-bought plant to your system.

If you’re adding a soil-filled potted plant to a media bed, be sure the bottoms are slotted so that the roots can wick up water. Also ensure that soil can’t escape from the pot and trickle into the media beds.
