'drip irrigation advice/experience needed
I think a lot of the drip irrigation stuff sold in gardening catalogues
and places like Walmart is not really useful, as it just replaces using a hose. The way to save with any irrigation system is to have a controller that irrigates very early in the day (before most people are up), so the water soaks into the earth and you lose none to evaporation by the sun. I would suggest you look at the web sites of some of the irrigation companies, where they explain how to design and install the system. I know rainbird has drip irrigation systems, and I would guess that the other companies, like Toro, also have them.

Basically, I'm wondering if anyone has advice on brands to use/avoid or books/websites with some general guidance. thanx guys Carl 1 Lucky Texan |
