How to bore for water or find natural spring
 

I have no access to running water in my plot
Is there a way of boring into the ground or storing water
that can be used for irrigation ?
Thanks Fozzy

There are quite a few ways of doing what you describe. Whether any of them
will suit you depends on the nature of your plot and how much you want to
spend in cash or effort.

g'day paul,

will water tanks suffice, thinking around 25 thousand litre size.

for water boring you need to talk to a bloke who does such, they
usually use some devining method, just some land gives fresh water
some so salty you could grow prawns in it and anything in between.

and the more who drill into the sub-aquafa then the greater the likely
hood others along the way will lose some capacity.

the bloke who does the boring can only in his terms guarantee to find
wate the quality he has no idea about.

Mark 13:33 "Take ye heed, watch and pray:
for ye know not when the time is".

and also: Isaiah 38:1&17-18 KJV

1: Thus saith the Lord, set thine house in order: for thou shalt die and not live.
17: for thou hast cast all my sins behind my back.
18: For the grave cannot praise thee, death cannot celebrate thee: they that go down in the pit cannot hope for truth.

Provided that he has a roof to collect water from, he is at a plot, we don't
yet know what is there. On some plots a tank that big could be half his
allotment.

If the water table is close to the surface, you can use "well points". They can
be "driven" points, or plastic points used as described here.
