I was looking about and i couldnt find anything or the sort really, i was looking for a dripping system but more advanced, instead of dripping slowly which wouldnt reach the whole plant. is there a system that would let say about 1litre of water in every 3-4 days on a timer at one point (like in 5 mins)? just wondering if my imagination just streching
 
if u get half inch spaghetti tubing instead of quarter inch it will allow more water thru the system quicker. Or u can get the rings that u place around the plant so water is spread evenly.

like this.or u can get a more powerful water pump so it moves the amount of water u want. u time the pump how long it takes to move 1L of water then programme your timer to that setting.

I couldn't find one so I made one out of drippers from lowes for about $25 for plastic hose and drippers and a $25 450 gal per hour pump. The drippers are rated at 2 gal per hour so on say wednesday at 2 the dig timer kicks on for 30 min and my plants get a gallon of water each. I am only at that grow once a week so I monitor it with a remote camera. The drippers go from .5 gal pr hour to 2 gallon. I tested all of then in jars to make sure each one let out the same amount of water and had one that was too fast.

Good luck
 
Yeah... You just use the stake/basket drippers that are basically just spaghetti tube sized. Build a manifold with half inch, fill it with irrigation fittings.. run 2 baskets to each plant....

Then use a 7 day timer... you will have the break up the watering into nearly equal increments... If you could find a 14 day timers then you have even more options. Just find out how long it needs to run for you water needs and program the timer accordingly.

Pump, 1/2 in hose/manifold, irrigation fittings, high flow cheap drip/stake irrigation baskets, pump, 7-14 day timer.

You need a 7-14 day timer because without it watering less than once a day will not be possible. digi timer....

To water once every 3 days.. you would need either a 14 day timer, or, you would need to re program your timer weekly...
