Summary:
🌱 Growix RootCore Cup — 3D Printable Seedling &amp; Root Training PotStrong roots from day one. Designed for continuous growth.The Growix RootCore Cup is a 3D-printable seedling pot developed to support healthy root development and uninterrupted early growth, especially for cannabis seedlings and other young plants.It focuses on the most critical phase of plant development:germination, seedling stage, and early vegetation.Unlike standard small cups, RootCore is designed to reduce early stress, improve airflow, and make transplanting easier, safer, and more controlled.🌍 Official Growix ProjectThis model is part of the Growix project.Growix Club (official project &amp; system page):👉 https://growixclub.deGrowix RootCore Cup (official model page):👉 https://growixclub.de/growix-rootcore-cup/The Growix Club website represents the original German project source.Other uploads or mirrors reference this original design.✨ Key Features🌱 Optimized root guidanceThe inner geometry supports natural taproot development while encouraging lateral roots for a balanced root structure.💧 Controlled drainage &amp; airflowLower openings allow excess water to escape and improve oxygen availability in the root zone.🔄 Easy push-out for transplantingThe bottom design allows the root ball to be gently pushed out instead of pulled, reducing root damage and transplant shock.👀 Root inspection possibleRoots can be visually checked before transplanting to assess density, health, and readiness.⚙️ Designed for FDM 3D printingOptimized geometry for common desktop printers and standard materials.🌿 Reusable &amp; modularPart of the Growix modular grow system.🔬 How it works1️⃣ Start the seedling directly in the RootCore Cup2️⃣ Water drains sideways and downward without waterlogging3️⃣ Roots grow deeper and branch evenly instead of circling4️⃣ When ready, gently push the plant out from the bottom5️⃣ Inspect the root system and transplant stress-freeThis approach helps prevent early stagnation and supports smoother transitions to larger pots.🌿 Recommended for✔ Cannabis seedlings (indoor grow)✔ Herbs and vegetable starts✔ Soil, light-mix, or coco substrates✔ Growers who want controlled root development and easy transplanting🖨️ 3D Print Settings (Recommended)🧵 Material: PLA or PETG📐 Layer height: 0.20 mm (or finer for smoother surfaces)🧱 Walls: 3–4 perimeters🌀 Infill: 10–20 %🧩 Supports: Required for the bottom geometry (depending on orientation and slicer)📌 Adjust settings according to your printer, filament, and slicer.📝 Notes🔹 Allows seedlings to remain longer in the cup before transplanting🔹 Reduces transplant shock by avoiding pulling on the stem🔹 Makes root development visible before moving to larger containers🔹 Balances moisture retention with airflow for healthier roots
