How do most of you water your larger outdoor gardens.Do you prepare large amounts of nutriented,ph-ed water all at one time? Do you let the water sit overnight before adding nutes and phing? Is your storage device portable?
We have 18 mmj plants growing outdoors,scattered around a sizeable back yard and each plant is in a 25 gallon smart pot. My two partners and I each water 6 plants but have been wasting vast amounts of time. We have been using 9 two gallon watering cans as that is what we had on hand. So we add the proper amount of nutes to each 2 gallons of water and ph before watering. We have been cash poor up to now-so that is why we are so stupid.lol.
I just came up with $100 to burn and need to change our watering technique. Please make any suggestions.WE usually wind up prepping approx 125 to 150 gallons every other day,when we water and feed.
Should I buy three large 50 gallon garbage cans from home depot to mix my water and nutes in and just dip the 2 gallon watering cans into the bigger garbage can? Should I buy a 50 gallon rain collector,with hose attached? Remember, I'm limited to $100 to make my watering scenario much simpler.
Any advice would be great. OH,by the way, we are growing in coco and perlite.Our plants are pest free,so far,and very healthy so we are doing most of it "right."Just watering with exteme "inefficiency." We are not too creative,so please help.lol.
