- We've had some old water butts that we don't really use so we wanted to make better use of them by making our own cheap irrigation with just a few items.

THE ALBAN ALLOTMENT
We're Kane, Sergio and Poppy the dog, working on two full-sized allotment plots here in St Albans in the UK. We visit the plot almost every day and have many plans for the future.
We have a large plot liable to regular flooding and a smaller plot to work on while it's flooded which was previously held by one of the founding members of the site's allotment association.
We hope you will enjoy following our allotment journey as we learn, document and share our progress. Whether you're a beginner allotment starting out on your new allotment garden, a seasoned allotmenteer, backyard gardener or managing a homestead, we hope you find our videos useful or interesting in some way.

Great video Kane! I've actually been sourcing items to do something similar next year. Be mindful to drain that system out in autumn before the frosts. Looks great. Danny
Thanks! That’s a good point I didn’t consider!
@@AlbanAllotment wouldn't want it freezing up . Just bring the hose in, in winter. Ps those metal clips are called jubilee clips aha I shall be messaging you now about the fitments. They look better than what I sourced. Great video kane! Danny.
Thank youuuu! Yes any questions feel free to ask. I thought they were called Jubilee clips but because of the recent jubilee I wasn't sure I was just making that up in my head so I didn't say it lol 😂
Very informative video complete with a number of useful product links. Has given me the full confidence to try this is in my garden over the summer.
Great video, would be interesting to know how long it would take to empty the entire waterbutt once the system is on.
Great to see you back 👍. Fantastic water system and I’m sure it will work great. Hope everyone is doing well 🐝 safe
Really interesting and informative video about irrigating crops. Sending you our continued support. Hope you have viewed our Early August Garden Tour. Best Wishes, Paul & Nadj.
Really useful Kane! 😊
Very neat you have thought about this and shows well done.
Thank you!
I tried to do the same thing, but my allotment is council run, and after an inspection I was told it wasn't allowed and had to remove it! I hope you're allowed to keep yours!
Actually your video kicked me up the butt to sort ours out, I've been meaning to get it done for such a long time but I always found an excuse for something else to do! Such a shame you can't keep yours, it was working perfectly as well. We're not allowed hoses either but I'm not sure whether that extends to irrigation from our own water, hopefully not! It's quite obvious too so there's no hiding it 😬
@@AlbanAllotment I think I'll have to get that gadget for making the holes in the pipe so I can do the drip irrigation for my home garden!
