New Drainage System

[chameleon97]

Well, My mistking almost flooded the house, so I decided to FINALLY make a drainage system.

You Need:
-Small Valve, I used my Spare Big Dripper one,
-Few feet of 1/4 inch tubing, Marty From MistKing gave me some... Kudos! (Remember Steven97 on GU? Thats me. BTW, Thank you very much!)
-Underbed Box (mines 30x23x6)
-A few triangular wedges

1. Drill a 1/4" hole near the bottom
2. Add Dripper Valve
3. Connect Hose,
4. Lead to a milk jug or something,
5. Put wedges on opposite side, allowing water to flow to drain.
6. Take pics!!!

im going to copy part of your idea. I use a dripper that drips into a plant that sits in an excess water catcher. my plant doesnt drink enough to let the water subside or evaporate. so im going to take a dripper valve attatch it to the water pan on bottom of plant run tubeing thru bottom of cag into a gallon jug!!!!! i have been siting here al morning contimplateing this !!!!!! good job!!!!

Wile this looks like it will work...It's rather unsightly (no offense)

I can see I need to take some pics of my current setups.

to be continued tomorrow........
