Building a hydroponic tower from PVC pipe comes down to two jobs, and these parts cover both: a 38.5 mm hole drill bit cuts the openings, and white planter cups push in at an angle to hold each seedling. Sold as a 30-pack, a drill bit on its own, or both, it suits growers putting together a balcony or yard column. The pipe, pump and plants are your part. It is part of our Home Essentials collection.

Frequently asked questions
What pipe do hydroponic tower planter cups fit?
Hydroponic tower planter cups fit a 38.5 mm hole, as cut by the matching bit in the kit. The pipe itself isn't included, so choose one thick enough to grip the cup base, and test one hole first.
Is a pump included with the hydroponic planter cups?
No. You get only the hydroponic planter cups, inserts or drill bit named in your option, and the pipe, water pump and tubing come from elsewhere.
How do I use the hole drill bit safely?
Clamp the pipe firmly, wear eye protection and gloves, and run the hole drill bit at low speed. Let the bit cool before you touch it, and keep it out of reach of children.
