Yesterday we went shopping and we tested the new pump. We took a few plants from the street (yes, you read it right. I took them while people looked at me. It was embarrasing).

First attempts were made to verify:
- the need of a slope,
- the capacity of the pump
- the flow (the slope and pump created)
- and the utility of dirt (or similar size material) as a support material

24h later, I realized that the pump is enough, no slope is needed and the dirt is super dirty (so never again)

The plants looked a bit sick but they were for free so...

We'll keep you updated! ;)
