So some thoughts on this. I have two tents one for starts and and vegetative, and larger tent for two plants in different stages of flower. Trying to deal with watering once a week by using drip irrigation. Like the Blumat rings, these are 5 gallon fabric pots. But just don't want to use gravity perfer a pump system. Was thinking on using a vivosun drip system with the Blumat ring so I can adjust my watering times and be more precise
 
I’m currently doing the same thing except I went flora flex with the danish trays, but I’m in coco nd there drinking about 4/8 L a day depending on stage, instead of the timer gravity gate thing, I’d get a small submersible pump nd a timer nd just run it out the res, probably won’t need a timer of it’s just to save u hand watering just turn the pump on nd they’ll all be fed evenly,I use the valve at the bottom of the tank for if I want to top up with hand water or check for ph ec swings,

For the diffrent rooms you’ll need different tanks for different nutes at different stages

I’d just hand water the veg baby room keep an proper eye on them more involved, nd get the flower on drippers nd just leave them to it up to you tho I don’t know fully how your set up or schedule works, by the sounds of things your on the right tracks

Thanks for replying, just trying to get things to were you can go away for along weekend, All toll one would have three tanks going , two on flower, one veg

Yeah sounds about right then, u get timers for this, can also start crop steering, one day I’m gonna get grow link controllers to automate everything
 
I drew some water rings that you can 3d print to sprwad you irrigation. Ive also built a growing system that does automated irrigation and nute mixing. Each plant can get its own amount of water. It would require some diy at this point, but someday I might make it a kit.

Im working on a write up to build one and the firmware I wrote is free if you want to build one. It'll allow you to grow hands off 100% if that's your goal.
