Part of the problem is that the wife took over my kitchen-compost spot, so now, she "owns" this garden (and she has forbidden me to enter it because she feels I end up ruining everything I touch). At the moment, I've flooded her tomatoes, and, I've tried to save all the tiny 6-inch oaks which, in the end, infuriated her because that meant I ended up digging up more of her young tomatoes. I've never done "drip" irrigation, so, I'm not sure what's the *right* way to irrigate her tomatoes (and present it as a surprise to her, all done and working). I *think* my options a a. Garden hose soaker b. Poly irrigation c. A sprinkler pop-up head For tomatoes I've always liked using these sprinklers because they are adjustable: http://www.homedepot.com/p/t/1001389...368321&cj=true or http://tinyurl.com/p7nnrcr It's attached to a 1/4 inch water tubing that is fed via the 1/2 inch main line tubing. The heads on it turn to allow more or less water to drip or sprinkle. I use one per bit planter, or 1 between 2 tomato plants. -- Natural Girl //(**)\\ |
