Yep, i use airpots, DIY, and rootbuilder variations. I am on a micro scale and using 16-12oz containers. I water daily, or every other day. However, i was using a mostly coco mix and then next round i added more soil and fired clay pieces, this helped retention. Also, i was going to use those silicate water crystals, but, those are rreall bad news. They break down into a toxin. There are the starch based ones which break down in about a year or so, i used them for a run, but, they do break down and don't want to have to constantly replace them. This did extent the watering time however.
Geohumus, i looked into the stuff and it seems to be really cool, but, never got around to trying it out. Smokebros is you ever try a run, check back with results. Based on research though, Geohumus looks like a perfect match for airpots.
---edit--
air pots. forgot. Yeah, love them, in whatever form. Even in the small containers i get beautiful roots. These perfect little cylinders of soil and roots. I notice no rootbound areas, just perfectly distributed roots throughout the entire soil area. its amazing. On that, they do a great job of root restriction, just as soon as you get all the variables figured out.
and a note on Geohumus. In the various information i ran across, they mentioned cations being increased via geohumus. Cations are positively charged, therefore they increase PH. Make sure you keep that in mind.
