[QUOTE="eugchen, post: 194801, member: 10660"] i live on a rooftop in Los Angeles with about 20 different large pot plants that are spread out on a rooftop deck. Photo attached. you can see roughly 6-7 of them in this photo. Anyhow, when we go out of town, we have been hiring a person to water the plants for us. my wife is interested in setting up some DIY sysmte with a garden hose with holes punched in or a PVC pipe that has holes that can water the plants every 2-3 days. can this be done? along with an automatic water meter? maybe something like this?
