what he said^It only holds 7 liters (which is 1.8 gallons).... doesn't seem like enough for more then one plant for a week.
You can make your own for about the same cost... or maybe a tad bit more... but worth it for a bigger, better system.
What you need:
13 Gallon plastic kitchen trash can (new) - OR bigger depending on how long you will be gone.
250 -350 gph water pump (this is essentially a pond pump)
Drip system manifold (mine have 9 drips each)
18 or 24" riser pipe 1/2" (this connects the pump to the manifold, allowing the pump to sit on bottom of reservoir and the manifold to sit above the water/nute line)
Drip system tubing and spikes to hold them in place
Digital Timer
That's really all you need... although I do also have an air pump running to 2 air stones in mine to keep the water/nutes full of air.
