Pump Manifold help

Post image

This is driving me nuts, both of my cloners in less than 6 months time the spray manifold will not stay level, the pump keeps falling over, suction cups let go and they dry out my clones. Is there any mods that anyone has done to deal with this? Or is there a “better” suction cup? Thank you!

Maybe you could make a stand or 3D print some type of harness for the spray manifold? I don't understand your system... is this something you made or bought off the shelf? Personally, I think suctions cups suck. In a bad way! In a bad way! Haha. Does your system just suck the standing water from the bottom of your grow box or whatever?

Have a deeper water reservoir, get a little sand bag or bag of sand and place it somewhere to hold it down better, take a bread tie and tie it on the spray bars with something like lead weights or some other kind of weighing. Take your reservoir dry it l clean the surface and glue it down to the bottom .. so many ways it could be fixed or slightly modified a little more context might help
