Ideas for a watering system?

Hi guys, I'm getting ready for a second winter's grow, and my setup is as pictured. I am greatly simplifying everything from last winter, and am thinking of a way to set up a watering system for the seedlings. Any ideas?

I want the water to stay in the tubs, and off the grow tent floor. Everything will be automatic, on float valves and timers. The only thing I will do is mix up a nutrient solution once a month, or so, for the 35 gallon reservoir. It only goes off once every 3 days as well. Timers under the herbs for the fluorescent is 12 hours on, 12 hours off. Any suggestions to better my setup are welcome!

I like dirt, and have toyed with hydro, and just feel like dirt is better for me. I can hook up tiny emitter drips, or mini-sprays, but I want this setup to be quick access, possibly removable. Hooking up a drip for each of these pots would be a bear, as you can see. How do you guys do it?

I have my big pots under metal halides, this is just for my everyday herbs.
