Here is my take on it..... for every 1 gallon of H2O use 1 pump of Oxygen+ (garden section) for next 3 waters. What kind of cat litter? Clay litter will combine with the sand and and creat a resevior at bottom of pot if watered too much. Put a circulation fan and airate at the base if that is where the sand and litter are at.
I use a straight potting soil, and add 1" (washed /recycled) river stones to bottom of pot (big pots 2 gal+ size) that covers bottom 2-3". I currently use 3 liter soda/pop bottles with lots of holes to breath, and fill with straight potting soil. Using a simple $5 fountain pump & timer, use a 5 gallon bucket with a toilet tank float valve to control water depth, I water every 4 days (i'm @ 5K elevation with <25% humidity). my runoff runs into a basin and is extracted by a simple $5 fountain pump on a timer and 5 gallon buckets. I empty about evry 20 days.
