Hi there guys. For this year outdoor season I would like to try to build self - suficient drip system. It is pretty symple. The base would be a big water container. Something at least 50l, maybe more (I am planning this for 10-15 autoflowers). Then it is just simple. I want to connect it with this system - http://www.blumat.at/automatic-watering-system.php#bltropf. Looks pretty simple and effective to me, and I heard some positive feedback too. I want to make my plants self sufficiet, when there wont be enought rain and I want to eliminate my visits at the plants to maximum twice a week - just to add fresh feedings or if needed add more water to the system. My questions are - Does anyone of you guys tried something like this before ? Anyone have any experience with Tropf Bloomat ? When I add the GHS feedings into the water tank and let it there for a longer time, is it cool (I mean if it is ok to have mixture of water and GHS feedings in the tank for a longer time ) ?

Thanks !! Bye ! :biggrin:

But yeah dripper could work, and 7 days like mentionned and all should be fine

I want to use a water tank (barecl or whatever) that will be placed abowe the plants. The best is just to use a place on a hill, you can just put the water tank couple of meters up the hill. I hope I wont have to fill the tank again (except the first). I hope there will be enought rain to keep the water tank full. Then I will just add fresh feedings and enjoy. ;)

I made a picture ( soory I am a baaaad artist :nea: ), but I hope it will be enought to show my intention.

Dust - What airstones ? never heard of anything like that. And yes it makes sense to keep the mixture flowing. Maybe some clever use of gravity/water flow ?

if you have lots of wind you could built a kind of wing that would turn with wing and a piece would go in reservoir and mix :P :P Mc Gyver style ^^

Yeah a tank like that sounds nice if you have a good dripper at the end and it doesn't go too fast could be nice, but for the shaking i don't really think of anything yet.. i'll keep thinking ^^

good luck

Purpose of Strain Hunters

Our planet is home to millions of species of animal and plants with their own habitat, and each plays a unique role in the perfect design of nature. Unfortunately many species of plants and animals are victim of uncontrolled human development. The sole intent of Strain Hunters is to identify, locate and retrieve cannabis landraces that have not yet been studied, in order to give scientists and doctors the possibility to further enhance knowledge of the cannabis plant in the medicinal field.


Preservation of Landraces

Cannabis, one of the most ancient plants known to man, used in every civilisation all over the world for medicinal and recreational purposes, is facing a very real threat of extinction. One day these plants could be helpful in developing better medications for the sick and the suffering. We feel it is our duty to preserve as many cannabis landraces in our genetic database, and by breeding them into other well-studied medicinal strains for the sole purpose of scientific research.

Cannabis should not be illegal


One of the goals of the United Nations, published years ago in official reports, was to wipe out the cannabis plant from the face of the earth by the year 2010. In reality this is far from being achieved, because man keeps using the cannabis plant for religious, medicinal and recreational purposes no matter what the law says. Most cultures cannot comprehend how a plant can be made illegal. In most people’s perception, plants and animals stand above a status of legality or illegality, they just exist in a higher design of nature that goes beyond human laws and regulations.

Nevertheless most governments of cannabis- producing countries are implementing drastic measures to destroy crops. Dangerous chemicals are sprayed over fields and over the farmers themselves in most of the third world countries, and the poorest people of the planet are the ones paying the highest price for cultivating a plant that does not kill. But in the economy of scale, where demand dictates supply, the poorest people of the planet have no choice but to cultivate cannabis as a cash crop to feed their children and send them to school. Communities that are isolated in remote areas in the poorest regions of the planet are often the keepers of very special landraces.
