yeah and the thing is as the flow gets lower the cap may need to be opened up more but its a really good start....how many bottles do you have??
Maybe you could water good before you leave set the first round of bottles to drip then set up another set with ice in them that will hopefully slow melt and by the time your 1st round of bottles is done the ice will melt and the second drip will begin...????

That's a great idea. Unfortunately, though, I think it would take a looooong time to freeze a 2L bottle solid, let alone 5! Too bad we're having a bit of a warm spell here or else I could just throw it outside!

I'm going to try to make do with this, and see how it goes. I think as long as my plants can be well-watered for the first 4 days, they should be ok. Well, at least I sure hope so...

How right you are...So, I was trying to scrounge up as many 2L bottles as I could find, when I stumbled across a roll of nylon rope. A light bulb went on, and I remembered about the WICK method!

Perfect for me, I have a tupperware bin that's almost identical size to my grow room. So, I stuck 4 wicks into each pot, put a bunch of misc. items to raise my plants ~4", then filled the tupperware bin with water to just below the level of the lowest pot.

I will update my grow log tomorrow with photos so we can all see the before and after photos.

Seriously, pink, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have had the motivation to even go searching for those extra bottles and I wouldn't have stumbled across the nylon rope. So, hats off to ya. Keep an eye on my grow log, and if you happen to be traveling my way, you'll be more than welcome to a taste!

26 gauge seems really small. I would think that it would have a good chance of getting clogged.

Apollo, have fun in Tahoe. I had a blast up in Heavenly earlier this year.
