ok so I'm sick of hand watering. I want something automated.
First I grow in coco.
I'm thinking using a 32gal black trash can as a res.
(The estimations on amount of plants might not be correct at this point, might only run 6. But will always fill 27gal. of water)
I will possibly run 9 plants in 3 gal bags @ 1.25-1.5 gal of water for each, every other day. so 13.5 gal of water every other day tops.
so I would have to fill my 32gal trashcan every 5th day with 27gal of water.
Ok if this sounds good....what do I need other then a 32 gal trashcan? I know I need a pump but what size? do I need another type of pump to circulate the water? what size line should I run?
I've never ran a reservoir so I don't know much about them.
