What do you recommend for watering plants manually?

I’ve heard that a spray bottle is best for saplings but as plants get bigger and need gallons at a time, what do you guys use? Are watering cans the best option or are there better methods for a small grow tent?

High GroovyGrass, Spray bottle for germination. Then a watering can with shower head, I like to use a 2 liter watering can with shower head. Whis way you can really meassure and controle the waterings amounts really easy and with a 5 or 10 liters model you overwater quite easily. The basic ruls is to give around 10% of your pot volume each watering. Then when the top layer of the soil is completely dried out again 10% Happy Growing! 😋

I use spray bottles for my seedlings, then I have 1/2 gallon jugs and 1 gallon jugs... but I usually only grow in 3 gallon pots so I don't need a lot more than that. Other people will mix a 5 gallon container and then dip into it to water their plants.... Whatever works for you as long as you know the exact amount of water you're using and mix in an appropriate amount of nutes! Good luck
