I count irrigation on the basis of drainage. I pour with drainage in 30% every time. For example bushes drink 30 liters per day. 30% of 30 liters is about 10 liters of drainage. If 7 liters leaked, I increase the time on the timer. If 12l – decrease. Of course, small plants can be watered with a minimum leaking and all will be well. During the growth I begin to measure the solution and drainage. After one cycle with your own irrigation system, you will already know how many plants are drinking and how much to pour.
About drainage. In the beginning, I had put to the bottom expanded clay and foam. Over time, I refused this. It's no matter the pots are 3 or 10 liter. Everything wonderful grows.
