hello to everyone and anyone who took the time to read this and give me a hand 
my grow setup:
at this moment i am using as follows:
medium is a mix of canna coco,
perlite
vermiculite
1 inch of clay pebbles in pots and lined bottom of pots with 10 sheets of kitchen roll in i think 1 gallon tubs ( they were advertised as tomato pots so i couldent resist)
they sit on seporate saucers and are hand fed through the bottom and once a week through the top 400 ml i feed about 6 - 15 times a week and average 10 ounces a time
i am feeding with a mix of 10 ltr of water and a mix of
20ml canna a & b
30 ml malt vinegar (for ph balancing)
20ml ionic bloom (for flowering)
pk 13/14 (for near the last few weeks of nutrient feeding before flushing)
i feed with a temp of arout 19 - 20 degrees celcius
using a 400w hps for both flowering and veg stage (using clones about 1 week from flowering when i obtain them)
-----------------------
the task i have in my hands
the mission is for me to find a way i can add a drip feed system to my plants i was wondering if anyone could help me what im looking for is a simple dripfeed system preferably a one that doesnt use electric for powering the drippage i dont mind using a water pump and tank heater i have those.
i was thinking of looking to fit some sort of pipeing to a water butt with the premixed feed and have it on constant
ive seen the sort of rings you can buy to put round the plant but dont know where i can buy one and i was wondering how i get the water to drip from the water butt to the plants (sorry for the bad grammer im in thinking mode)
i was also thinking that if i used the drip feed system would i have to have the plants raised of the ground or could i do it so there always feeding and there insnt much run off from the plants over the course of the day
any help would be greatly welcome nomatter how small thanks for taking the time to read through my jibberish
