My father has a black bin in his little greenhouse that he keeps topped up with water. He fills the bin with a measured amount of water that has been dosed with something like Tomorite. Being inside the greenhouse it keeps the water at a regular warm temperature and the feed is administered every time he waters his tomatoes and cucumbers. It does not seem to matter that the water isn't fresh. He has won many prizes for his tomatoes, so the idea must work!

You could always fit micro-bore pipes with small pin-holes in them at the right place! Other than that it's not something I've heard of!
