I finally have our new irrigation system dialed in, and I’m super happy with it. The front garden (shown) is irrigated by wobblers that are run off 20 psi, so very efficient. The rear garden has drip tape irrigation installed. I use both types so that I can meet the needs of the way different vegetables prefer to grow. Both zones are on a timer that go off intermittently for short periods throughout the day while I’m at work. This way it’s possible to germinate lettuce and carrots throughout the very warm Virginia summers.  Check out the link below to see the wobblers in action!

 
You'll find me in my office. I'll probably be drinking. And reading this tiny ad.
