Top feed drip system tek question
    #141402 - 11/05/08 08:24 PM (15 years, 4 months ago)

I have been searching various forums for teks on drip system set ups.  Does anyone know where I could find a selection of good teks?  I am interested in reading about personal experiences.  I haven't found any on here and ICmag is f'n huge and my searches there haven't been fruitful.

Thanks Captain!  Pico doesn't fuck around.  I assume this is the one you meant.

its super easy to do up.

Id go with 1gal per hour nozzles so u can put ur pumps on for 15mins and u know u fed 1L to your plants.

less for smaller plants. one litre imo would suffice for a plant that was vegged 3-5 weeks in a 2gal pot.

uPVC or PVC is a waste too I use this like black tubing that costs 17cents a foot

basically the drip irrigation part of the table (no table, res, pump, or particle filter) will cost 20-30$ per table. as low as 10$ if u dont use nozzles but u wont have even feeding.

Interesting info.  I actually have a 264 gph pump in a 37 gal rez.  i haven't started running yet as the plants are barely even seedlings.  I am wondering if this pump is way too much.  I will be watering 6 plants and haven't decided to do a drip system or run it constantly.  More specifically I was wondering if i could do a drip system with this pump since it seems so powerful.  Do you think that restricting the flow of water to a drip will adversely effect the pump unit itself?

well you can have a 8000gph pump and it will just get pumped back into the res and the 1L will only come out the 1gph drip nozzles in 15minutes...
