I'm nearing the end of my first grow. I've been working on some sort of automatic irrigation device for my 3 plant set up.
Specifics:
2x4x5 vivosun tent
3 gallon fabric pots
mars hydro sp250
mother earth coco plus perlite (70/30)
Canna line nutrients
Vivosun 6 inch carbon filter
Vivosun 6 inch in line fan
Mephisto Genetics Sour Stomper x 3


Using a 5 gallon blue bucket, I mix Canna line nutrients per their recommendation. I purchased a vivosun 400 GPH fountain pump, turned it on high, and sunk it in the bucket

I use a 1/2 inch black plastic tubing with a red valve, to connect the pump (in bucket) to the 3 way splitter

The pump itself is plugged in using a wifi enabled outlet so the process can be performed remotely

The three way splitter each have separate valves attached. I connected each tube to a two way splitter. The two way splitter allows you to make a circular tube that goes around the base of the plant. Each circle has 5 adjustable sprayers poked into the plastic tubing.

I also have inkbird temperature and humidity controllers attached to heater, humidifier and swamp cooler.
The in-line carbon filter fan, LED light, two rotating fans, heater, swamp cooler, humidifier, Three camera's are all able to be monitored and adjusted remotely using a cellphone. When set up right I can even feed the plants remotely.

Put the seeds in water on 12/16/19. I'm about a week or two before harvest.
