simply because I had one of these Toms aqualift ($15) laying around I experimented with it.
I plugged it into a timer and did one notch down = 12 minutes of run time, attached a hose valve to adjust the drip rate and so far its working pretty good.
This is a just a simple setup and trial run.
Macros on the left container and Micros on the right. Each contains 3 cups worth and one weeks worth of ferts.
The 12 minute run will drip about 1 cup's worth. I'll alternate the hose every evening from macro to micro. By the end of the weekend each container would have dosed 3x each and ready for a refill. Now I can just create a mixed solution once a week with the water change instead of individually scooping each fert every morning, which was making me late for work.
