It’s a lot. Just remember you have to change out the water every week. That’s the only problem I’ve had. Also rinsing out the leca, you’ll have to either boil water and put it in there or use really hot water and keep rinsing. My plants in leca have grown like weeds just remember also to have a good fertilizer for hydroponics. I love every plant, and it’s saved a couple of mine.
