Easy Watering System

[Tom]

Hey billo, I edited the reply I made to you into one of the previous posts as well so don't worry you didn't miss something obvious.

Let me know if anything is missing people, the aim is to keep this as easy and simple as possible.

 

the only thing i can see missing..is pictures of the plants it grows

 

..using garden hose sounds like a good idea too...

 

..man..i can hardly wait to start growing...im still just doing the research until i get myself a place to live where growing indoors is feasible....oh well..hopefully it wont be too much longer til i got me own pad..

Great thread man. I am hand watering rtw with limited success.

 

How many mls do you reckon a 2 min feed through the dripper would be.

 

I'm thinkin of measuring how much I hand water

How many mls do you reckon a 2 min feed through the dripper would be.

4 lph = 66.666' ml per minute but it's something you would need to check out yourself because I have never gotten around to measuring the actual output from the drippers in my system, I just concentrate on keeping the pot reservoirs filled.

Yeah, a Kodak CX4230 and it handles the lights really well, it's only a 2 megapixel but then I got it for $10 at a garage sale, new condition in the box too.

What size are the pots you are using?

What size are the pots you are using?

The pots are shown in the second post, the shape can vary but the capacity would be around 10 - 12 litres, the pot size is mostly governed by how large you want to grow your plants.
