Default Tripod For Sprinkler?

Why not just set it to do half a sweep and put it on the other side of
the hedge. Once that side is wet, move it to the other hedge. You only
need to water each side half as long, since the sweep only has to go
half the distance.


Even less than half the time for each side. The water that would have
been wasted in run-off into the storm sewer from the sidewalk would now
be going on the lawn instead. And it would be cheaper in two ways: The
extra water spent watering the sidewalk doesn't need to be bought, and a
stand for the sprinkler wouldn't need to be bought.
