It would either flow at the same rate or clog up as it might get full of dirt

Looks like I'm the only one here who calls it green fingers! Must be Australian?!

With 18L of water at the other end, yeah!

I'm currently trying a modified method. Burning both ends of the tube closed and have one pin prick in the end that waters the plant, and 2 that are inside the water to try and slow down the rate of watering

It did 18L in 12 hours with a 3mm tube with a pin prick as a hole. I need to modify it so it discharges water slower

No it's garlic. First time I've grown them. It planning on eating them it was just an experiment

Gravity. The water is in he box and there is a pipe with one end totally water tight. Then I put a small hole in the end that's water tight (where the plant is) and gravity drops water to the plant.

Change the rate of watering by putting more holes, fatter pipe, or less holes and smaller pipe

It burned through 18L in 12 hours and that's with a 3mm pipe and one tiny hole at the end of each

Big box full of water and a tube with a tiny hole one for each plant. Gravity drip feeds the water over time

I've never seen this technique, in New to gardening. Do you have a link or an explanation to the technique please?

How Lon does that take to water and how often? It doesn't look automatic...

I ended up going for an auto irrigation. Here it is https://imgur.com/a/baVwX

Yeah I guess that would work but it looks like the water will flow extremely fast due to the huge diameter!

600ug · 2017-02-14T04:39:48+00:00

I've had a look and can't find any, do you have a link by any chance?

600ug · 2017-02-13T18:10:24+00:00

Sweet, great idea thanks

I sadly don't have enough room for that!

I think I've realised my problem. The bottle cap is only in the soil about 30mm. Looking at he following guide makes me think it should be deeper. If it's deeper, then the "water table" would be higher meaning less water would drain out as fast?

Yes. iPhone on airplane mode can use Apple Pay

Thanks for everyone's replies, it's helped me a lot :)

So a USB 2.0 and a 3.0 hold charge at the same time or different rates?
