Auto water, gravity feed.

  1. Here's a pic (I'm not an artist if you haven't figured that out yet) of a diagram I just whipped up of an idea I had this morning. Currently I'm watering my plants in soil with a water can. They are taking a ton of water. Big waterings every other day, smaller days in between.

    Here's the idea. One bucket, with a valve on the bottom, running into a pvc vertical piece with 12 smaller tube lines (each with it's own small valve) out of it. When the main valve opens, all the water/nutes will gravity feed to each pot. They will go through a Y adapter that will water each side of the bucket. I know I can do this with a pump, but I thought it would be easier to regulate the pressure and flow with just gravity. All will take about hte same watering amounts.

    Thoughts?

    What other diy watering systems have you guys done/dreamed up?
