I cut slots in the plastic bottles to allow for evaporation which cools the substrate and reduces algae growth, I also drained all the water out of the containers and I'm limiting the waterings to having very little standing water to continue to avoiding root rot. Having a healthy substrate, rhizosphere microorganisms in turn help plants by fixing nitrogen from the soil air, dissolving soil minerals and decomposing organic matter.
