You posted this 8 years ago, and can you believe it still works today!! This Los Angeles balcony gardener believes that simpler is better – and boy is this simple!! I love it! Much thanks to you sir from an L.A. city boy!!
You've probable already covered this question, but any reason not to bury the end of the pipe to slow down the water delivery and extend the watering delivery cycle? Probably no advantage to this but might work out ok…
Good Looking Lab !!! Also I'm using your TRICK!!!
Apart from the watering system, do you use fertilizers for your vegetable garden? Such as an NPK?
how often do you fill the tube or water. I know they dont like a lot of water but they love food. I have found to much water and tomatoes will drown and look as if they need water when they dont. You look like you have been doing this for a long while.
Love it you plant how I do. I use the post hole digger also.
you forgot to remove the plant from the container
can you post a link to jeff's utube video?
that's genius. thanks!
how often do you need to refill each tube?
I like this, but have a drip system for my vegies, but planning to put in new fruit trees this spring. Would a smaller hole added to the top and a cap cause the water to come out slower??
I think placing that pipe directly on the root ball before you bury it might be a more efficient use of water. Great idea I might give this a shot in the spring.
Enjoyed watching your system. Thank you, Sir and God bless you. Amen.
