Tempted to get a water butt (why not hop on the bandwagon!). However,
its main use would be to water the lawn. I usually use a lawn sprinkler
- the pressure in the cold main driving the jets. Would anything like
this be possible with a water butt, or would I have to put it on the
roof to get the needed presure ?!
My veg patch isn't big enough to warrant a butt just for watering this.
Gravity alone will empty a water butt quite slowly- it will be just a trickle
compared to what you are hoping for. But you can buy "water butt pumps" that
will give you the desired water pressure, or something similar.
