Hi Zact01,
There is nothing there in your post above about potatoes. Is there a link that has information ?

lol thanks Murray. i could easly see this incorporated into a ap system. if and when i get my stuff to gether and buld my test system (currently minster of finance and zac's stupid ideas control hasn't approved my test system) i will try this out and let you all know how it go's. i would like others opinons on how they would acheve this. i was thinking that a small portion could be syponed off to drip into the bucket/bin and then be re intreduced to the main tank. (hand bucketing.) what you all think ??. i know garry didnt have mutch sucsess with this.

I do not have much success with garden beds I have to remember to water.
It is one of the reasons I really like AP, watering is automatic.

For others it may work well.
