seriously cool watering system! Your PVC pipes lined up like that reminds me of my younger days with a pyrotechnics company from Long Island. Though they were steal pipes, they were lined up much like that and loaded with explosive shells.

Wow, very nice set up Don! Lot of hard work to get to where you are now!

I am guessing your cages are about 19" diameter. Is that your ideal size?

What kind of wood did you use for the bed frames?

Default Same Idea for Containers (Mid-Level Watering)

Here is what I am doing for my containers in my greenhouse. I do have holes in my "T" pipes for a more even distribution. I want the water/fert at the root level not the top or bottom. See me previous post in the container section.

Default Mid-Level Watering

I do something similar for my containers in my Green House. Mid level not top or bottom. I put small holes in the "T" for better distribution of water and fert at the root level.
