Heres the deal...by the way,thanks for stopn by...the deal...my tents in the s/w corner along the same wall as my window.giving me two options when watering...the main zip or the one zide chutethat you can peep thru...?
Second..leaving the main fully unziped and doing so stank up my room and that I cant have...leave with a couple and there kool but why tell them...stealth....

how to water 4 plants,the two closes to the chute arnt to bad,the other two I had to lean over....

After several rip fromm my SB I came up with this

What ur going to ne...
Pc of 1/2" white pvc tubing....i bought two 2' pc.
all parts listed below are 1/2" unless noted*

2 female adapters
1 45° elbow
1 adapter
1 Male adapter
1 Pvc valve
1 1/2" (npt) threat to 3/4 adapter
1 end cap..i belive it was 1" cap...taags gone

The parts needed...pic
You rearly dony need any glue on the pcs...the fit is so snug it doesnt allow water to zeep out..i did glue the male adapter to the canteen using a hobby brand super glue..worked fine?..every thing else is screwed or pushhed in to shape

We have seen the parts lay out and the male adpt on the canteen..now for the assembly..

If you want to use the wand with a garden hole simply by pass the female apadter screw on the canteen with a 1/2" to water hose adapter.so once you have that done cut a pc of pvc bout 5" long and slip in into the female end...once there slip the pvc valve at the other end,follwed by the pc of tubing left over from what you cut earlier

Now take ur adapter and conect a pc of what ever lenght pvc tubing you need ..i used a 18" pc.

Nex051512181110.jpgt take ur 45° angle and continue building it up

Once ur angle is in place ad another pc of tubing...i chose a 8" pc and hook that up to ur angle.
Im doing this on my phone so im tryng to rush...dam keys to small...lol
Next we atach a female adaptor so we can screw the shower head on.
Take ur 1" end plug and drill small holes.or burn a pc or rod red hot then drive it thru

The 1/2 to 3/4 adapter is fited to the cap,using the 3/4 end of course051512181351.jpg

Now that the 2pc shower head is assembled screw it on and this is what you get...besides not having to spend 50/80.00 on a quality,leak tight wand...im sure indoor growers doing so in there room know what im talking bout...you scrogers def know what I mean

try www texasgreenhouse com, they sell a 4' waterwand for like 15 bucks. just a thought. its threaded for a garden hose, so i hooked the hose to a $7 water pump in the bottom of a 5gal bucket. my 1st attempt at what you did was just stretching a piece of hose over the watercan spout. the main problem was flow rate (tilting the watercan), either a trickle or water splashing soil everywhere. i only mention this bc of your $50/80 price on the wand. great job on all your plumbing tho!
