Doing the job yourself gives you time to get to know your plants and understand how they respond to feeding before moving on to automation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-custom-css wp-custom-css-debd1dfa wp-block-paragraph\">Ian recommends aiming for at least <strong>20% run-off<\/strong> when watering to help avoid salt build-up in the growing media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"max-width:900px;margin:0 auto;\">\n    <div style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;\">\n        <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MzyRdx6WXkk?rel=0\" title=\"YouTube video player\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border:0;\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\">\n        <\/iframe>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns has-custom-css is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex wp-custom-css-d3ea9ccb\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/globalairsupplies.co.uk\/thegreatindoors\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Web_HW.gif\" alt=\"Hand Watering\" class=\"wp-image-3742\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"gb-text episode-copy gb-text-152123b9\">How It Works<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A hand watering system takes the basic process one step further. Plants are still watered manually, but trays beneath the pots collect the run-off and pipework carries it to waste, preventing plants from sitting in nutrient solution with elevated EC or pH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Systems such as the <strong>IWS AutoDrain<\/strong> automate the removal of this run-off while leaving you in control of the actual feeding.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"episode-content gb-element-51e4ff4e\">\n<h4 class=\"gb-text episode-copy gb-text-522871dc\">Advantages<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div

class=\"gb-text episode-copy gb-text-e011b472\">Because you\u2019re feeding the plants yourself, you spend more time with them and develop a better understanding of how they
