240FT Drip Irrigation System Kit, Automatic Garden Watering System for Plant, Greenhouse, Yard, Lawn, with 1/2 inch 1/4 inch Irrigation Tubing Hose and Accessories

So the picture isn’t very pretty, but it works….keeps out the rabbits! This is my coneflower bed. I have two irrigation water systems at the house for my zinnias and black and bloom salvia, both hummingbird and butterfly magnets. Did you notice that 2024 was very hot and very dry. Being older than dirt I am not able to water at the house and then drag a hose from the house to my coneflower bed. Then one day a bulb lit up over my head and I ordered irrigation lines and attachments to make three mini-systems for my flowers. I used manifold attachments to the spigot at the house and one at the coneflower patch. Timers were added at the house to the two systems there to come on automatically every other day. I had enough 1/4” line to run 3 long lines to my three large flower pots on the back porch. I didn’t have to water flowers at the house all summer! I do have to pull the hose from the house to hook to the manifold feeding four lines into the coneflowers. I have to switch the lines every 10 minutes because our water pressure isn’t enough to feed four lines at once. This is a small task compared to having to water almost 40 coneflowers with a hose end wand. So why not simply hook up a big sprinkler you might ask. It covers a much wider area. Well, it does cover a much wider area, but we are on a well and in a “severe drought” area. I only need water on individual flowers. The little nozzle attachments at the end of each quarter inch line does this beautifully, saving lots of water. The irrigation kit helped me get started with the mini-irrigation systems I ended up with. I had enough in the kit to do 2 main lines at the house. I had to order additional parts and lines for the system for my cone flowers. I like this product. It saved my back and kept me from having a heat stroke!
