Installing efficient drip plant watering is easier, cheaper, and more effective, and more fun, with less digging than any sprinkler system. #phew
…It’s like Dune for your plants.
@Luke But do you get the BLUE EYES?? 😜
@Luke Would love to hear more about your setup.
@soundclamp yeah?? Hammer suppressor Rain bird battery timer. Pressure reducer from 95 to 25psi. 3/4 line split to go around house both ways from back and capped. 1/4” lines to all the trees 4gph drip and plants @ .5gph drip.
Less mildew. More efficient. Less pummeling of plants with hose. Can now leave house during hot summer without coming home to dessert plains. 🔥😹
@Luke 🍻 How many zones on the timer?
@soundclamp it’s a simple timer. 7 day options. One zone.
@Luke Duly noted, thanks!
@soundclamp it will do for testing. We’ll see. Might need to split it up into two zones. Around 100 drippers!
@Luke Unless you live in the desert and the ground is all rocks and boulders 🤣😰
@Luke Yeah. It’s a workout for sure. This was one of the big ones I had to pull out
@stickel dude! You’re doing much more work than we are. Whatcha planting? Avocados and lemons?
@Luke Sorry I missed this. We are just trying to get more green in this beige desert. We do have 2 fig trees, 2 lemon trees, 1 orange tree, and an apricot tree.
@stickel That's great! I miss our meyer lemon tree and avocado tree the most.
So, are you installing in-ground or above-ground systems? I really love the above-ground despite it not looking entrie professional. Easy to change or add, check up on, and to not destroy while digging holes for more plants.
@Luke Thanks! It’s been an adventure. We’re doing in-ground drip irrigation, which is a bear with the rocks. But thankfully now ¾ of the main lines are buried now the rest is easier.
@stickel awesome! After a month, our lines are fantastic and efficient.
@stickel mike????? Is this you?????
