auto watering?

does anyone know how to set up a drip watering system or a autosystem to water your plants? thanks heaps

head to your local hardware chain and ask them to direct you to auto lawn watering systems

mod the timers and tubing to suit your needs

is there anyway of doing it without using a tap?

yes but you'll need a tank for the water thats under pressure

I'm sure many of the hydro growers here can help you with this

thanks for you help ill wait for some one else to post

maybe this can help u it is a self watering hydro kit u can build usinl pvc piping

thanks but kinda hard to understand, im not doing hydro though i just want something that will drip everyonce in a while or attatched to a timer cheers

you can probably get by with a manual pump tank like the ones used to spray gardens for bugs an such

you'll probably have to make up your own attachment to run it to your spray/drip tubing but past that all you'll need to do is wire the valve that opens an closes on a timer

if it's over your head the next best thing is using airtight 3 liters or similar with tubes glued in air tight on the bottom

you'll have to manually loosen the caps to cause the water to flow into your tubing but it's cheap and clean if filled with a funnel

Here is but one link I found by searching the internet for "indoor water timer" >>> http://www.mrdrip.co...eringsystem.htm

And one for searching on "build garden water timer" >>> http://www.dripdepot.com/

You could try other searches as well. Google is your friend.

yup. and a good ressy is easily and cheaply obtained at any hardware store. It's called a plastic trashcan. Get a good 35-40gal one for like $10.
