Automatic watering systems

Hi, I have an idea to be able to water my greenhouse plants with a capillary system. I have looked in the garden centre and not found anything yet. Anyone have any ideas that could work from a water butt that will sit just outside the greenhouse. I have inherited some clay objects with a short bit of capillary pipe attached and wondered if these were part of a system and that I could add to it? Any ideas folks? Potty L

    Hi. You would need the water supply to be higher than the plants you wish to water unless you have an electrical supply to work a pump to get the water up to the plants.
