Default Phytoplankton Cultures

Does anyone have any experience with Phytoplankton Cultures
and is it worth making you own green water versus buying 2 fishes phytoplan
?

Here are some links that discuss DIY phyto.

There is also something else that I've noticed that takes the culture
station a step farther
and that is a Phytoplankton Reactor...A.K.A. ....
A Culture in a tube that is Automatically fed to the tank.

Is there any Value to culturing your own ?

TIA,
