Re: Today I planted several seedlings which are watered automatically. Hi Suz, The snip above is the only part that bothers me. Yep, the "automatic" part. Gareth gave you good info. Howsomever....I just don't know any "automatic" way to maintain the proper level of soil moisture. The minute you turn your back, it'll either be too wet, or too dry. Hope you can work it out.
