I would take a few from the bottoms. Leave the lowers up front. I think you'll get some good popcorn there.Hey Derbybud, CBDream... Should I take more leaves off?

Looking forward to the diy auto watering build. Congrats on the new job sounds like way less stress(worth it).Smooth sailing in a few weeks brother. Looking like we are going to get smacked pretty hard with Hurricane Florence here. Calling for 15 inches of rain. Hope they are wrong lol

I just purchased the last thing I needed on the way into work. Now just need some time so I can take lots of pictures and some time to write it up. Couple of days.
Make sure you take care with that much rain heading your way.

Hurricane season is usually over by the 1st. Of October but with the water temps still at 85f it could go considerably longer.

So I'm going to start my auto watering system. This might take awhile but thought I would just put up a shopping list together and as time permits I'll do the build but if there are questions I'll answer those daily.
First off is the pump. I usually use a pump that is about 1/2 this size for considerably less money but I'm trying something a bit different this time. I'll get into that later.
Pump
Next are the assorted fittings, pvc & flex tubing.
And the 27 gallon rez.
Hopefully this is what we end up with as this system works quite well for me. I'm making this new one almost exactly as this.
One day I will have this in its own thread but thought I would put it here and maybe put any questions with answers right into the tutorial thread.

Did you get yours up and running? I'm thinking it doesn't have to be perfect as they only have a few weeks left. Just enough to finish them.

No pot growing here. That changes in about 40 days. Lol
Testing soon
I'll add my 1/2" irrigation hose to my garden hose, then take some 1/4ine off it with a dripper
I have one of those manifold from MOTM winning, may work it in next year.... Ooo they came with drippers, I'll see what GPH they are
Mine isn't as technical as yers, but that may be an option for this springs grow for sure

No drippers with mine. I just use the 1/4" flex tubing and drill holes in it and t it around the pot
