Similar to a garden hose setup. Lol.
I used parts out of my plumbing box.

The standard irrigation pump threads and accessories also fit shut off valves and fittings. Lol.
Timed it while I filled a gal jug and it's about 20 seconds. So I can keep track of how much water is used.
A fellow man of culture I see. If you're not tending to the pot garden in sweats and slippers, are you even a real stoner?

Next time I need a part instead of heading to blowes or dome hepot I'm gonna check the Jesse catalog. You probably have parts I've never heard of that would work great with some of my weird ass ideas ?
Man I got so much different shit from all the work etc I do. Lol. Plumbing, electrics, trims, all the tools for anything. Lol. It's why my garage is so damn packed. Lmfao.

One of these days you're gonna do a commercial grow op job and score some lightly used or new equipment. Then you'll see me pull up in a 20 foot uhaul.

Hahaha do you also toss a shoe from one hand to the other while singing the song?

??I have always wanted to have a neighbor just like you
I've always wanted to live in a neighborhood with you
Please won't you be
My neighbor ??

Yes he was man. Definitely one of a kind, not a chomo either like some questionable ones out there lol.
HPS is dirt cheap here too. Well, depends where you look, so maybe play sand cheap lol. Same with LEDs here, hard to find anything not blurple or really expensive used like 4 Cree COBs and 240w driver for 800 lol.

Not exactly a grow hack, but what's a hack to do.
???
Kid outgrew using this thing in the lunchbox, and has decided carrots are disgusting.

Was a three part container for baby carrots and dip. (Obviously right.)
My daughter hates carrots now. ???
I get her to eat them with threats of no dessert.
????
It's since been repurposed.
Just happens to fit this perfectly with no rattle.

Even does a good job of keeping the funk contained. Lol.

"What is - a doughboy pool?"
Maybe I'm a loon like @Jewels and @Uncle Rom are, but here's my thoughts. Lol.

My thought is to do a built in liquid applied waterproof liner in the flower room and veg room.
To the floors and up the walls a bit.
A couple mil thick at least.
Kinda like the flex seal boat but in reverse. Rofl.
Then flood the floor with the amount of water needed for all the plants.
Typically 10 to 12 gallons overall when I hand water now for all of em. Up to 15 gals if I'm running a few more than usual.
Pots being 3 gal to 10 gal on average, hard side and fabric ones.
So a 10 gal floor dump would be the starting #.
Wicking up would happen, the larger ones taking more and the little ones less. Overall using up all of it, and the remainder helping RH to stay up.

I've thought of individual watering lines, but like not having shit in the way. Lol.
Nice to be able to spin em and move em around for inspection without a bunch of stuff to move about.
So hence my thoughts of a flood, no drain. Lol.

Again, it could just be an invitation for new problems to solve. Lol.
