    Lots of options for cheap option tho just get a res and gravity feed and place it on a water timer and set that time for how often you want it fed. Can do cheap DIY easily.

    Something like this, but have tubes going into the top and I would out them into a ring spot goes around the pot and waters more evenly.

    But you can pretty much get a bin, drill hole the tubing to go thru, you need to make it leak proof then get splitters and run to each pot.Click image for larger version.

    I bought the white boxes from Amazon for around 35 $ a pop.

    Home irrigation system or similar.

    Reliable and provide a good level of granularity. Mains or battery operated and come with all you need.

    Only down side, is they seem to die after a year of daily use. Also they have a finite amount they can deliver.

    Work very well for me. 1 box per plant.

    You can buy 2 for $30 which come with Chinese buttons.

    I had the same issue. Away for 2 weeks holiday while a grow was in it's 8th week. I bought a nice little automatic water dispenser from Amazon. £40 but came with t
    All the tubes, clips etc. Was idiot proof as it could get and very easy to program. You can literally have this thing squirt out water for 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 30 seconds every 12 hours, 24 hours or whatever you want
    So long as you have a bucket of water sat outside the tent. I guess the only issue would be the purity and cleanliness of the water after sitting for weeks but I didn't notice any issues
