A new grow, GG#4/WW/BW

Ckbrew definitely pretty under-powered, but should work good for my purposes.
2 nozzles will deliver a fat 1/2gal in 7 minutes so that's what I'll try every third day(might end up at 6 minutes). If it does overflow I'll put a pan under it to catch any overflow so it can absorb it from the bottom. I have time for a few trial runs before I leave.
PS: with no nozzles it pumps 1 gal in 6 minutes through 1/4" hose.

Just keep the top of the nute tank lower than the top of your soil. It will syphon if your tank is higher.
 
Bluey Thanks. Worked like a charm this morning for the scheduled 6:30 am watering. Quite pleased actually, no ponding at all, in fact the surface of the soil stayed dry and all was absorbed below surface grade. At this point, $40 well spent <g>.
 
Nice work. My tank siphons if I fill it with more than about 30 gal. A design floor when I was designing the room. I tried a few simple fixes but no joy.

To be honest I prefer and enjoy handwatering but it's a bit much given 5 big plants that require the equivalent of a quart every 90 minutes.
 
One last pic before I go. She'll be on her own for a month, about 2-3 weeks before a typical harvest
I give her zero to none chances of yielding anything smokeable. Think the watering system is dialed in, but it's WPM and bud rot I fear.
Anyhow, good luck to the rest of you :)

She's setting buds for sure. White widow, it likes to grow late into the season.
A bit taller than I was aiming for, but it's stretchy stuff, stretch seems to be close to over though.

So I mixed up 9 gals of watering solution for the auto watering system, should be plenty. Have already seen a few spots of wpm, removed the small branches infected and did a bit more defoliation but my hopes are not very high for the month ahead unattended. Such a shame as she's actually doing fairly well, decent plant structure for air flow,manageable size, I'm bummed to leave here, 'nough said. I also noticed the nutrients settle out of the solution. I've set the intake up a few inches of the bottom.
dirtymike I have cameras with the alarm system, but will let the plant have its privacy <g>
I lied, more pics beginning to get some puff balls --- also, had a visitor the other day. :O)

That's a pretty good one. Looks like a big male. Big square head. Good luck with the wpm. So damp this year in the northeast.
