Can you explain to me how the dosing cup works? Sorry if I'm just dense and not getting it. I see a cup on the shelf with a hole in it. Do you just dump the whatever into that, and let it just drain at its own rate, or is it something more involved?

What's the new thing coming?

Thanks for the explanation re. the cup. I thought maybe there was some complicated thingamabob dispensing some set amount into the cup and the draining from there. I guess the complicated dispensing thingamabob in this case just happens to be you

Where'd you get that last piece... it looks ALOT like the piece I was gonna give you a frag of from the Aussie shipment awhile ago... except yours is missing the green base?? or is it a completely different specie? growth pattern looks very similar
