I use a SWICK. That is a container with a hollow tube inside to allow a water cavity, and support the weight of the plant. The top of the perlite is 3" above the tube. You can drill a hole in the container at the height of the top of the tube, and stick a straw in. That will set the max water height. The water in the tub will wick up the top few inches. On the bed of perlite I place my bag if soil and the plant. The water wicks up through the bag into the soil. When I top water to feed, the excess water runs through the bag into the bed.
One tent has a pump from a reservoir to put water in the control box, and return it to the reservoir using pumps. The other tent is tubs with a straw, drain to a bowl. Look at my grow diaries.
