Interested in that watering setup - looking to dabble in a straight coco run. Might look into a gravity feed.
Been a Soil / peat boy too long. What’s your setup ?
Drippers ?
Rings ?
I'll take some pics. It's really a super simple dtw setup with a 30$ irrigation kit from Amazon and 2 400gph amazon pumps. The whole setup costs less than 50$. I was trying to learn how to do an automated dtw setup before I plumbed the 5x5, and I had all that on hand anyways so I just made it happen. I just use the sprinkler heads that came with the kit but I've made a few dripper ring prototypes, as well as ordered a bunch of 2gph drippers which I can use as well. Still trying to figure out the best way but what I'm doing is working fine.

This is a link to the exact one I bought. (I have like 3 or 4 of these kits I use them for the garden outside too)
Drip Irrigation Kit,100ft 3/8" & 1/4" Mirco Irrigation System,Automatic Garden Watering System for Plant,Sprinkler System Kit,Indoor Outdoor Automatic Watering Misting Supply for Raised Bed Greenhouse https://a.co/d/8pmxKPQ
I prefer this particular kit because it comes with single and double manifolds so you can modify to your needs. The others have 4port or more which I find drops the pressure too much.
It also comes with a few other items the other kits don't.
I run in a loop, with a pump feeding each end of the loop so there's minimal pressure drop through the system. Everyone's getting pretty much the same amount of water. I was able to run 9 plants with 2 lines to each pot. Now I'm just running 6 and the pressure is much higher.

This water system is very handy and helpful. So when you want to water the plants, just turn on the tap and the water goes directly into the soil?
Yep the water and nutrient mix is held in a reservoir. Pumps are used to bring the water into the tent. Right now since I'm only watering once per day/two days, I just manually run the pumps. Soon once they are a bit more established I'll run a repeat cycle timer and the pump will turn on 2 or 3 times per day cycle depending on the plants needs.
