Hair dye application bottles from any beauty supply store. They have a very small hole and a pointed nozzle so they drip very slowly.
I can fill my bottle with water, stick it into the soil and it will gradually drip water directly into the soil near the roots. I would estimate they dribble a drop of water every 10-20 seconds but it does vary depending on the angle, obstruction of the nozzle, and other factors.
It has been working very well so far on several sprouts and I hope to use it in the long run.
These bottles hold 6 ounces and are about $2.00 each.
A downside is if you fill the bottle with the full 6 oz. of water for a seedling or a sprout you could potentially flood the pot. Most of the bottles I have used drip very slowly and the evaporation from heat, air and use by the plant keep a nice balance going.
Cheers.
