any one use some sort of automatic watering system for their grow

does anyone use some sort of automatic watering system that doesnt require electric for their plants? im looking for somthing that would control the moisture my plants have, kind of like the MG moisture control soil, but i would never use MG... i heard of someone that had some kind of watering pellets or somthing that they would lay around the base of their plant and they would only have to water it like once every 2 weeks or something like that, anyone ever hear of such thing?

i use a micro sprinkler system....no electricity other than the well pump...(just like a outdoor faucet)

you can use the crystal type balls http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=plant+crystals&_sacat=0&_odkw=plant+crystals&_osacat=0&clk_rvr_id=380578530026

or you can mix and top dress with vermiculite.....

in the ground is better than a pot...

When I get lazy I just fill up a gallon jug with water(small hole poked in it) so the watered is slowly released. Set the jug next to stem of plant. It would be better if you did it with a 3 gallon.....or even 5 gallon jug. Depends how big your plants are.

If you are close to a water supply(faucet) I use a battery powered sprinkler timer
