Hey found a great thread here, this is what your talking about right Chaos? Pretty much a hydroponics drip system, for soil.

I just need to figure out how much water to give it. It would be easiest to water once a day on a timer if anything. So if I water 2 gallons a week (1 gallon twice a week) would that mean I should water .28 gallons a day (2/7)? So I would run my 120 gph pump for 1 minute per plant (120g/60min=2g/xmin 120 = 120x x=1min)? So for 4 plants, I could set the timer to on for 4 minutes once a day and been good? Or would it not work that way? Lol just trying to calculate how to adjust the water.
Should I add a small amount of nutrients to the resivour while I'm gone? Is there a good ratio for all this where I can just fill the resivour every other week and let it water itself?
