The coco girls....I did a little supercropping last night, and I can see watering these daily is going to be a PITA so I'm looking at automation. I read the Blumats won't work well enough in coco.
Only going to veg about another week....as soon as they recover from the bending I'm gonna flip!
We did get some rain overnight and more coming today. I haven't been out yet, but going to hit the grocery store today.
If, sitting in pre op, hip replacement this morning, burn one for me
See you on the other side, make the most of the drugs!

I made this for less than the cost of a blumat kit.

That is so sweet of a setup!! So many questions, but I'll try and be easy!!
Does your tub have a drain, like a DTW system? Do you water til runoff?
Are those manifolds from a drip system? That's all I seem to find.
And lastly, for now, what kind of emitters or drippers/sprayers are you using?
I appreciate your help!!
I have a bunch of stuff already....pumps, hoses, a drip kit I never used (but no manifold in there), a tub, etc..

Currently no drain. I'm still learning everything. I do water to runoff and I'm using a shop vac to collect the waste. I plan on drilling a hole and putting a catch pan under the tray.
I'm using these manifolds from orbit. They say drip but each manifold can handle up to 140GPH. A lot of people complain about the orbit manifolds leaking so I used plumbers grease instead of teflon tape. It doesn't leak a drop.
8-Port Adjustable Drip Manifold
This manifold turns one ½-inch riser into 8 individually adjustable drip outlets to be used with ¼-inch drip tubing. Each outlet’s flow rate is adjustable so you get the perfect flow for each drip line. Adjust from 0-25 gallons per hour (GPH).

Currently I'm not using emitters. I was told that you have to keep a very close eye on them for clogs. So I just shoot the water on some glass stones. I want to get some ring emitters but the best price I could find is $18.. I didn't feel like spending $160 on emitters. Once I find a bargain I'll switch over.

I found these really cool emitters, but this size is for 5 gallon containers. Not sure if they have other sizes. Under $4 each in lots of 6. BUT I could see where clogging might be an issue. What you are doing might be the best way! Or we could make our own dome and put any type sprayer in there

You should ask my wife about her score. Sheesh. She chipped stone dead for par 3 holes in a row (she's a 20 handicap). I was stuck between yesterday's majestic swing thought hybridizing with the usual LMAO. We played 9, she shot 46 and I, alas, was not much better

But watch ... the next time out she will hit four straight hozzle rockets. Golf tends to do that
We all shoot -4 on the drive to the course. But it feels like we shot a +40 on the drive home.
How's the "trail elbow"? I was filmed last year at the range by a friend and I can see my trail elbow flies out. I must fix ...

You must forget every swing tip you've ever had, otherwise you will apply them all at once. It's a law of golf logic.
