Default drip irrigation from small container.

Hi

Does anyone have a simple drip watering system suitable for use from a
small container reservoir. I would like it for watering about 6 pots
and am happy to refill the reservoir a couple of times a week.

I have tried 'big drippa'...
see:
http://www.harrodhorticultural.com/H...ts/GWT-007.htm

and found it to be worse than useless!

The drippa's are very difficult to adjust sensibly.

The water ends up either all coming out in 2hours or none in 24hours.

Is the Iriso one any better? see:
http://www.twowests.co.uk/TwoWestsSite/product/IWK.htm

Any tips would be useful.

Many thanks

Helen

Are you able to connect up your drippers to a water butt? Something
like this would give you access to a reservoir which you may never need
to fill up manually:
