I used 5 gallon air pots and amazon parts, a digital cycle timer and a 10 gallon garbage can res for my first “irrigation solution” 🤣 We took a cruise right before flip. I used Happy Frog/Ocean Forrest and put everything in 22×44 Ag tubs and collected my runoff in five gallon buckets through holes at one end!😆 It worked… barely. I put three emitters in each pot and top fed as needed. Before and after.

I grow way different now indoors, but will use a very similar set up outdoors this summer, just encircling them with veggies and no tubs!🤘🏼

Build a soil has videos on YouTube where Jeremy grows in a few different styles of sub irrigated planters. He top dresses and covers the soil with fabric or plastic and the plant sends feeder roots up into it but keeps drinking from the bottom. He had great results.

I use a blumatt gravity fed watering system when I go auto. I also grow in living soil top dressing dry amendments. I have a 5gal bucket as a reservoir. In heavy flower two plants use about 2gal a day. Build a soil actually sells pre set blumats for living soil that work with gravity or a pump and pressur system.

I also grow in an Earthbox…check out Jeremy Sylva at Build a Soil
