    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.
