I plan on finding a small stream or creek and running a 1 inch line into a water storage such as a barrel or trash can. The trash can will have a facet that will run 1/2 inch line through the patch that will have 1/2 GPH drippers. Oh yeah the barrel mush have a filter somewhere to prevent drippers from backing up along with a timer. This is prob the most convenient method and easily mobile to the patch.
that seems like your going to need to find the perfect spot man, i dont have many streams near growable areas with minimal foot traffic in my area. also arent you worried about police doing aa fly by amd seeming all kinds of piping and big cans of water, not like they wont stick out in the middle of the woods, not trying to discourage at all man more power to you for new methods and shit, thats why i asked how you were going to water cause im looking for ideas hahahaha i wanna do a nice sized grow next year and so far my big problem is watering!!!!!!!!!!!!!
no ,but you thrashing thru the bush ,shaking,bouncing them up and down etc prob will cause some damage. Pack them well.
Killer idea man, totally innovative and convenient!!! How do you ensure the plants get adequate watering? Is there some type of timer or monitor?
Yep I don't mind that a few might not make it, as long as the majority are all right. I'll just clone extra to compensate for transportation damage.
That thread is just what i needed lol thanks man. I'm stoked that they are strong and I guess that one interrupted light pattern should do no harm.
It's set up as more a drip irrigation than anything and I was just hand watering every 2 or 3 days and I had my homeboy rig it up it's not really on a timer but the battery doesn't run constantly it waters for about an hr then it kicks back on once the battery is charged back up... Doesn't water at night at all cuz the battery is dead by then without the sun to charge the solar panel to charge the battery... Make any sense to ya? First time he explained it sounded like gibberish but it beats that $3.70 gal gas burning bout $120 a week hand watering... It's not that complex and I suggest you to look into it if your sick of hand watering or just wNna make things a lil more easy... Good luck
Sounds like a neat idea!!! I was thinking of just packing them nice and tight into cardboard boxes before stuffing them into my backpack. Not sure how well my idea will work out, I guess it will depend on how rugged of a hike.
