How to build drip system for soil.

[lyfr]

kool i figure that i was hoeping to make a res it is possible for soil but probably wouldnt do well.as for the plants looking good thanks has to do with the breed and lots of trial and error but were getting there.thanks for the pic of the timer can yours turn on every other 2 days so many minutes twice a day?

yes, you can set it for like mon-3am...sat-1pm...sat-off-1:01pm...sat-on again 1:02pm and off at midnight. its very versatile. its the intermatic model DT77 at fine home improvement stores everywhere! i got mine at home depot or lowes...cant remember. also has battery backup for clock, and automatically adjusts for sunup/sundown...and daylight savings time. a bargain at 15.99 or so.

What if you had 2 of these set up one with nutrients one with water and you get each one to tun on like every 4 days and have it set so one day its nuts thin in 2 days its water and so on... You could set it all up and go n vacation..

i was gonna do that but i was gonna send plian water to my vegg room and some nutrient mix to the flower room as of now ive been useing plain water.

This is exactly what I need! I have to travel about 30 miles to feed my ladies and this system would be great for me, saves me time and money, excellent tutorial!

P.S Does the PH level of the water change over time at all?? Am going to make a system like this so I could leave the plants for a week and my friend only has to check on them.

im not sure i never check ph the less i do the better they do lol.but im sure someone could answer this.

yep, you can mix and match, you set each on/off time and each day separately. one day, 7 days or any # in any order.
