@BinGrower, your set up sure has sparked my imagination, thanks for posting this great and unique set up.

No worries buddy. It's pretty simple
The bottle:
The cap:
The parts:
The general idea:
It's not connected in that picture. The hose just goes through a hole in the wall and is connected to the bottle cap.

Splitting the feed twice is unnecessary I've found. A single T piece and two outlets is fine. You can also just put the hose through the hole the plant grows through and place the outlets on the surface of the medium.

I've been watering every fourth day about 2.5 litres each time. I would not recommend doing this and I'd suggest watering every second day, I suspect my recent problems are related. Letting the waste evaporate is fine but the drip trays get pretty filthy. I usually actually drain the trays with a 150ml syringe and dump it on a potted plant in the garden.

Me like. So you're in a soil medium? No nutes in your water?No worries buddy. It's pretty simple

Hempy perlite bucket. Lots of nutes, too much recently.

After seeing your posts many times on reddit I have finally found you on RIU. Amazing setup and kudos to putting love into the design. How was the stretch on the sour kosher may I ask?

Still very impressive, even with the bobbles in plant husbandry. Top feed RDWC might be an option, something I'd definitely try in your shoes.
What about a single CXB3590 driven at 50W in the lid? 2gpw would give your current yields, fewer watts drawn, less heat. Expensive upgrade but potentially well worthwhile. Would not need lens or reflector since the space bin would handle any stray photons with aplomb!
