Automatic Plant Watering Device (simple version)

Step 3 Prepate the bottom pump

This pump moves the water from the main reservoir to the measured one we suspend above it.

Place the pump in the bottom of the bucket.

(Or whatever you have. Big plastic water tight vessel. I found my pumps had a hard time pumping more than about 16" vertically, so make sure your pump can actually move water out of whatever you use.

Cut and attach a length of tubing.

This tube will carry the water to the plastic tub on top. It should reach from from the pump outlet to the top of the bucket, plus about 4 inches. You can always cut it long and trim it back. Attach this to the bottom pump.
