Recommendations: Drip feed system prior to turning autopot on

Post by wutang »

So just a quick one..something I thought of today as I've been getting more familiar with coco growing;

My plants will be going into an autopot system. However until they've grown and roots have reached the bottom I've always hand watered. To move away from this..I'm thinking of putting in a quick and dirty drip irrigation system. This just gives me some time.back.

Any recommendations on a decent system that isn't going.to.break the bank for this purpose? I will be transplanting them into the 15l pots whilst they are small so ideally something I can drop into 15l buckets I already have as I don't want to transplant again.

Cheers
Wu
