So pretty much I run a line to each pot correct?witch nozzle do you use?the dripper?or the sprayer?
I hook up the lines to the pump.
Do I just throw the pump in reservoir every time I water?and then just water until I see run off then turn off?

Another option instead of the irrigation kit is getting an irrigation manifold which would connect to the pump, and then disperse to each of the plants from one place. The kit posted above is gonna run 1 or 2 main lines and each line would branch off closer to the main line. Me personally I run a rainbird manifold like this one
I run ½ inch tubing from the pump so my manifold so I use this adapter for the ½ tubing to connect to the pump.

Here is the manifold I run on the end of the ½ tubing

Then I connect ¼ inch black irrigation hose and put these on the end of the hose. They go around the plant

I’ll take pictures of my set up in the morning. Then you’ll see it and it’ll make more sense to you

I leave my pump in my rez all the time. It doesn’t come out. If you want it automated then you can get a timer for it to feed automatically

Cool ,I really appreciate all the help and information.
So if I use the set up you sent me first with the Vivisun pump every time I water I just turn the pump on and throw it in the reservoir correct?

Yes indeed. Or buy a timer where it only comes on for a seconds a couple times a day on it own. Then you would only have to worry about keeping the rez full

The 3” matrix circulator does this item only have one drip in it or is it 2 droppers?can I run this circulator with the first system you mentioned instead of the ones that it comes with?
Or pretty much same action?
Thank you @imSICKkid for all the help.

Yeah you can for sure. They have 2 connections so you could make a loop in it if you wanted. I didnt make the loop for them so I melted the plastic closed on one of the ports so they just have one connection

Quick update mi added the trellis net in 2 days ago and plants are doing good.
As soon as the in the middle hit the net I’m flipping to flower.so about week and half or two.

There is a problem with using a single net to support multiple plants: the one in the back will get sick and need to be flushed, or the middle one will finish before any of the others etc. Individual screens are really the only convenient way to do a SCROG:
This is how I’m running mine.

Do you think I will be better off not using one?
I figured it would help me once they get a little bigger as far as holding them in place but now that you mention that ,you are correct.I was debating also on not putting it in for the same reason.with the net off I can move them around if needed.
I think you have a great point @Myfriendis410
I think I’m going to take it off .

Could you do that for me? And link my two posts or advise me on how o can do it
If you built a drain tray to place the plants on you could keep them under the screen. With the tray your not limited to the amount of water or nutrients they need because you can flush them if needed. But your running Jack’s right? So I dont forsee you having an issue with any plants

Yes I’ve been running jacks and so far so good.but I think looking in to a tray like you mentioned would be great and make things much easier.

Dont buy some overpriced tray at a hydro store. Get a washing machine drip pan and save yourself a couple hundred bucks
