    Default Watering devices

    Having a hard time watering certain plants due to the location inside the tent. I usually just use a regular 2G watering can
    But it’s not easy to hold that damn thing up above some of the plants as they are getting a lot taller.
    Anyone have any advice? I was thinking about a 5G bucket and an aquarium cyphon. Anyone have any recommendations on how you water your plants that are hard to reach?

    The height of the plant shouldn't make any difference...You water the pot not the entire plant foliage.

    I really hope this isn't what the OP is trying to do.

    I was going to tell him to trim off the bottom A little, where he can get water to them, but don't know how big they are yet.

    I guess because the plant is magic, new people seem to think we are also.

    I think what the op is saying is..he cant get to pots further back so easy because the plants in front are in the way and getting taller. I guess he may find it easier to stand and water rather than kneeling down and trying to get inbetween the pots. Amusingfungs I have heard of people putting a extension on the spout of there watering can. Yoi can do this by sticking a length of flexible hose or a piece of sturdy plastic pipe, what ever you find easier.

    I got an 8 foot length of plastic guttering. The standard type that is almost half round.

    I cut it into a 3 foot and a 5 foot length with a hole drilled at one end so it could hang from the wall and not pick up dirt.

    In use, I hold the guttering in one hand and have the far end of it resting on the edge of the pot. With my other hand, I pour the contents of a plastic jug into the guttering. It's so quick and easy compared to direct feeding that the 3 foot length is used to feed the plants in front.

    I can't really see that being A problem. I got by the front two on these for 8 weeks.

    You just have to move those front buds out the way and stick your water can back in the back. lol

    Althow I did bitch and complain ever watering.
