Automatic Watering
I've bought an automatic water control from Aldi for about £20. Works well, with lots of options, which is the problem. I am using it to water tomato plants growing in the greenhouse in grobags, plus a few lettuces in the soil there. Using small pipe drip feed system. I have an option of 15, 30 or 60 mins once or twice a day. How long and how often is appropriate? At the moment I'm trying twice a day for 30 mins, which looked to be about right during last weeks heat. Trouble is I'm going away soon so I'll not have much time to try other settings, hence the request for advice. Other concern is that there was no advice on battery life, so I'm a little concerned that the batteries may fail whilst I'm away for 3 weeks. Being Aldi supplied, only contact was a German web site! -- Roger T 700 ft up in Mid-Wales |
