Small Home Garden Drip Watering Questions
I have been thinking about running a standard garden hose around the
perimeter of a 12' x 30' vegetable garden, inserting tees at several places along the way so as to reach the 4' x 4' raised beds in the interior, and placing a short loop of home-center recycled tire soaker hose in each raised bed. Assuming that I had a timer and pressure regulator at the water source, do you think this would evenly water the whole area? Or would a smaller diameter soaker hose be preferable? Is there some practical limit to the number of tees I should place along the main line? I got the idea from seeing the drip irrigation kits on the Internet, but as I already have the hoses I thought maybe these would work well enough. Have any of you done something like this? TIA, J. |
