watering hard to reach plants in a tent (soil)

chooselove · Oct 9, 2017

Any suggestions on how to best easily water hard to reach pots in a 5x9 tent? Planning to scrog too and tie scrog to tent poles. Second option is to build a scrog kit out of pvc and place them around the 4x4 trays i currently have in there to be able to maneuver a bit in the tent

Thanks @chemphlegm looks Right, I'm inside though without Hose line access and not using the tap at the moment. I'm using filters s ro water from a 5 gallon container would it still work?

Set up drip irrigation

maybe?
or bigger space or smaller containers

Looks great. Drip irrigation crossed my mind a few times. If you recommend a particular brand or system feel free!

Go to an agricultural coop or big garden center, take one that does the lowest output per minute or hour.
Work out how long each dripper needs to run for to deliver the amount you want to.

Flood trays.. You can get them for cheap as central air a.c. drip pans at home depot just water in the front. Pretty easy

Yes I have them in flood trays and fabric pots. Currently in 1 gallons. 2, 4x4 trays in a 5x9. Transferring to 3 gals later, 9 plants in each tray so far, may add a few more gals

I use a 1 gallon sprayer, cut the head off and use heat to bend the tip over a little.

Ahh I see I've used beer bongs to reach the back trays affixed to the wall.. Good trap workout haha

Exactly, I got mine for a bit cheaper. That ones the max Flo version which pumps a bit more lpm. If you find the standard one for a few bucks less it does the trick just fine.

be sure to pick up a wet n dry vac...just saying..

for hand watering a 1 or 3 gal pump sprayer works well. I still use mine for the seedlings and early stages.
