Auto water in soil

Hey everyone! Just finished this setup for hands off watering using a pump with some 1/2” hose. I’ll also be able to fill my reservoir and set a timer for it to water while I’m away. Fairly simple and cheap setup, a lot of the products are on sale right now at Amazon. I’m especially pleased with the pump, it’s an OEM model of one I sell at work, going for $60 on Amazon right now and the branded version that I sell goes for $180.

Were you able to adjust the flow for individual plants? The front left is going to drink much less.

Yep valves at center manifold let me adjust to each plant, just open/close to desired flow rate. Pump actually moves enough liquid I leave the return open while watering to keep flow rate to plants lower.

I could also shut off to three plants and water one at a time if needed to hit different nutrient needs.
