Do These Drip Irrigation Tips And NEVER Water Your Garden Again!

Make sense and easier. ❤

This was a very useful and informative video, thanks for creating and sharing!

Most of my garden is about 75 feet from the water source/well. There are minimal drip outlets along the way. Do I need to add the pressure regulator if my targets are so far away? I feel like the water won't make it up hill to the terminal gardens.

Okay irrigation is still intimidating but thanks for the tip! Lol

I should’ve watched your videos first. I already ordered that shitty dripper and it’s really worst. Subscribed

How do you do zones? Off the same faucet? This baffles me.

Impressive thank you

Which one is bucket irrigation

Excellent video

I got a summer job working in Irrigation this year, mostly doing lawns but I have done a few drip systems. The fixed rate drip nozzles are the way to go.

One greenhouse system I installed, the client wanted something very similar to those adjustable drip nozzles you showed.
(They were like mini fountains, spraying a 360 around themselves rather than the small spider leg streams of water)

We had to go back a week later and swap them out. They had the system running for 15 minutes per day and completely flooded everything.

Simple is best.

How many plants/trees can you water with only one sprinkler head?

Do you have to worry about the pressure if you use the existing sprinkler system?

I hope you have a back flow preventer ( one-way check valve ) to your house outlet.

Thank you so much for sharing very valuable information, after using / exparimanting drip the irrigation system and also other things! 🙂
Are you planing to make a video on how to setup and use "Dosatron" system for fertilizing?

Thank you for the great video . I just setup my irrigation . I am using the 1/4 inch tubing 6 in emitter spacing mostly for hydrangea and roses in containers . The emmiter is 1/2 gallon per hour . I have tried to do loop in most container . I am now stuck figuring out how long to run the irrigation everyday . Can you please help with that

My friend! Help me out! I’m going to do this thing. I’ve had enough of 2 hour a day watering. I’m looking at the kits. I feel like using the kits first will boost my confidence to get it done, but I’m sure the individual components are cheaper. I’m seeing different set ups for containers versus in ground or raised beds. Do you think if I knock out my containers with kits I’d be able to figure out the other areas of my garden using individual materials, or should I get some raised bed kits, too? Is there a big difference in how they’re set up? Oh, I hope you see and respond to my comment. (I’m scared, lol.)

I want to buy a drip irrigation system from Amazon. Which one would you recommend? I saw your store and it was overwhelming.

As I want to spend less time watering, I am honestly considering using some form of passive irrigation. This video is great for giving me some ideas on what I might do. Thanks!

Cool beard.

This was really helpful, thank you! Picked up all the pieces a la carte and was a little lost.

Yes, the screw drippers are useless.

Thank you for great tutorial, clear and very informative , all novice gardeners like me thanks you 👍🏽👏🏽❤️

Waste time?? It’s my time….I love wasting my time I guess.

Have you considered growing record breaking pumpkins?

You're supposed to go: Backwater valve>Injector>Filter>PRV

good informations but too much redundancy. Video could be easily half length.

Nice hearing practical words saving us some trial and error. Water pressure in the system is so key. If you live urban, find out what the pressure from the street is for your system. We really like fish emulsion fertilizer, available anywhere. Fertilizer always is good but don't over do it. Use a valve on that in line fertilizer accessory. My helpful tip is to use goof plugs/or a mentioned a line valve to stop watering empty space or using too much fertilizer.

Please tell me how to get the water to the raised beds that are away from the house, and how you protect it from your lawn mower.

completely ignorent of this. Can I run one line and run a row set up that turns into a container? I need to run hose all the way to the back of my little lot. to the ally where I have rasberries in a row and 4 tires planted in front of them with zucchini and tomato's, rubarb. Have another row of tires to the side of my yard and later want to add some high raised beds. im horrible at watering though.... and fertilizing. I never know how much and forget to water. can I add a timer in and have it run its self?

I am upgrading a 15 year old spray system to drip. Do you use the 1/4 drip line with built in pressure compensating emitters? Also wondering if my fertigation Mazzie injection system will work with this system.

Very informative tq

Great video! What is that short black connector between your 25psi pressure regulator and the 2-way splitter connected to your faucet? Can I connect the pressure regulator directly to the 2-way splitter?

🙂

Thank you again for the very helpful bed.
I used drip depot 👍. And got it started 😊 however
I had kind of a stupid ha question, but..,.
Do you place your drip tubing under or over the mulch that you have on your vegetable garden beds?

Can I bring my garden hose down to my garden? Grow bags and use drip system of the garden hose with timer.

Great video! Thank you.

I have been following you for about a couple years I’d guess. I truly enjoy your videos. You are very professional and personable and informative. Thank you for all your wonderful work.

Can't locate the amazon fertilizer mixer, must be buried at the bottom somewhere, my eyes are starting to cross :(

Hello, love your vid! I have a 500gal rain container, is there a limit on length of tubing I need to water all my plants?

Hi. Very nice content, bro. What are your thoughts on a diy PVC system? Pros and cons.

I enjoy watering but once summer comes and it's over 100 degrees and you have to water twice a day, it stops being fun. I would really like to try and get some drip irrigation lines set up. I still would have to do some supplemental watering when its really hot but overall it would really cut back on watering. Also, that fertilizer system is really cool. When its not hot I dont mind watering and fertilizing by hand, I have plenty of time so if it takes awhile its not a big deal, in fact I rather enjoy it. But its just those hot summer days where its in the 90s or even 105 or higher, that's when I know i'm going to want to have this set up.

Do you have to take up you drip system in the winter to keep it from freezing?

So glad I ran across your video. I purchased a system last year and was about to lay it out and connect. Valuable info about a shut off valve for different beds. It is definitely an Ah-ha moment and I will be adding shut off valves to my vegetable beds. Also great explanation on different emitters. I’m a newbie to drip and your info explains so well. I enjoy hand watering as well, but don’t have the time. I find that watering would exhaust the time I have leaving no time for planting or caring. I also like to travel So a drip makes a lot of sense. No one else will water my plants the way I do.

I've never considered watering a "waste of time". In fact visiting my garden is my therapy. With that being said, I absolutely love my drip irrigation. It has been a huge time saver and a garden saver for when I'm gone. For that alone I'll never go back to manual watering. I get to spend more time inspecting and enjoying the garden.

This is quiet funny... I know exactly where that retention pond is at. Gators are out and the city is growing growing growing, Lowes will be open soon!

How long do you run your drip and how often?

I need to irrigate a narrow garden bed, 20 feet by four feet situated between a fence and brick wall, do you have any ideas on how to do this with drip irrigation?
