How do you water your plants? Automagically or by hand?

Please tell me Also state howmany plants you have and how big your grow area is!

Ill start:

Area 1:
12 plants, 4x4ft area, automatic watering system

Area 2:
11 plants 4x4ft area, automatic watering system

I do mine autoMAGICally with my hands and a jug, works magic imo, hehe.....that is definitely my word of the day!! I love it.
1.2m squared vert grow with lots of plants. Average water is 24 litres (circa 5 gallons) 3x per week.

no watering for me - ebb and flow one tank drain per week

Hi DST! Automagically is a word programmers use. Beats me why, but I thought it was fun too And stickybob, that would count as automagically ehehehe Thanks for the replies!

Area 1) veg. 4x4ish 6 plants in 5 gallon buckets and 6 in 6" pots. All as needed by hand. 1 gal for buckets pot just as needed.
Area 2) flower. 4x7 9 plants in same buckets from veg. 1 gal twice a week or some times 3 a week later in flower(day 50+). AC in this room also.

i have a 4ftx4ftx7ft room with 5 girls and i water all mine by hand

Magic automation!!! I work in the IT industry so although not a programming geek I do often get the geek jokes, but that's a new one to me..hehe. Not sure why they use it either. I will ask one of my guys.

Cool guys Thanks for the replies! To everyone else: lets take this thread to 10 pages, reply!!

I hand water but have auto-watering pots for prolonged periods.

4 girls in soil in a 3x3' tent.

I water by shower. I currently have 7 plants in a flower room 4x3x8 and i have a bunch in the veg cab that is 4x3x3(just increased this the other day, was running out of room due to mothers, clones etc) Currently all mine in the flower are in 2 to 2 1/2 gallon buckets. I just stick them in my shower and let it "rain" when they ask for it.
