With drip irrigation I want to know how you distribute amounts of water to each pot. Say I have 6 pots and want 1 liter of water to go to each pot every day. Is there some sort of meter/timer so you can make this possible? I'm a noob when it comes to automatic feeding as I've always hand watered
 
Some drippers (most) have a fix rate of flow (eg 8L/hr). Using a timer you can calculate the desired amount.
Example:
Using an 8L/hr dripper, each hour 8L is delivered if the pump is left on.
So if i need 1L per day, using a timer i activate the pump connected to the dripper for 7-8 minutes (7.30 minutes equal to 450 seconds to be exact)
