I have a tomato plant which were getting yellow from it's leaves and I wasn't getting much time to water the plant so I make this drip irrigation which can be adjusted to the plants need ,the open from the upside is for easy refilling so don't have to take it out fill and put back so I just go and just fill it right there.

Make a hole exactly like the nozzle in to the cap of bottle,put the nozzle in to the hole and secure it with hot glue (My glue gun is broken down) so I am using the lighter it's also a life hack for the hot glue stick .tighten the cap back to the bottle.
