Do I need an irrigation system? No since I don't own a garden or even a yard in my tiny house. But did I finish watching the whole 25 minutes of video on how to swap out your irrigation system? Definitely YES! I'm so thankful you've been uploading daily so I get to see the outdoors through your garden everyday. It has been a blessing especially under quarantine and I'm stuck at my home 24/7 staring these 4 walls.
I often lament the wet weather we get here in Ireland, but when I see how much work goes into watering in a dry climate, I'm suddenly very grateful for all that rain! Thanks for the video guys 🤗
@@kevinrowan4464 I think there are some scenarios where it might be worth it, for instance a garden with a ton of containers, a polytunnel, or if one is gardening on a very large scale. But for the average Irish garden I don't think it's necessary. It's a relatively short period of the year that flower beds need to be watered, and i've never once watered the lawn!
Yes same here. I wanted to install a drip irrigation but we get so much rain all year round that It's kind of unnecessary. It's only 2-3 summer months that I need to water my plants every day and that's fine because I have only a middle sized garden and its manageable.
@@ClaireBear8031 exactly. I'm in New Jersey. We get a ton of rain; sometimes way too much *and* I'm on city water (it's not hard water) so for the few weeks during the dog days of summer, if we don't get enough rain, we can get by with a cheap sprinkler. I get the convenience of it and the aesthetics (if properly mulched to conceal it), but cost-wise, I'm not convinced drip irrigation is worth it.
Thank you for this type of content. Never worry about this "boring" stuff not being interesting for a TH-cam audience -- this is EXACTLY the type of information that I need to learn how to work on my garden.
I am forever grateful for Laura showing me how to do drip irrigation! It’s life changing! Glad it don’t have to get this complicated though. I would need an Aaron!🤣
I don’t feel so bad now, I thought we were the only ones cutting through drip lines when planting. Enjoyed seeing Aaron do his thing in the garden too. 😊
Thank you all so much for making videos of the less than glamorous parts of gardening! Am I strange that I found this incredibly relaxing to watch? 😁The music choice was a wonderful backdrop, Aaron. You are a wonderful family. God's blessing to you all. 🥰
I love when you guys do these irragation videos. My older brother does this for a living. He is the hardest working man I know. This is his busiest time of year getting all his clients ready for the spring and summer seasons here in PA. I heard Aaron mention about systems that arr run from indoors. That's the big concern he was having this year with the current virus going around. He was just telling me recently, many of the properties he services, has their access boxes inside their garages or basements. Watching yiu guys tackle this makes me admire my brother more for all the hard word he had to do. Thanks for sharing.
OMG Benjamin is so big. I've been watching your videos since for ever . which by the way has helped me sooo much in being able to grow anything on what was once really bad soil , i couldn't even grow drought tolerant plants, they would die. anyway love your vids.
Coffee with Laura, Aaron, Benjamin, and Russell how nice and what a fun project to watch! I can imagine that anything you can do to make watering a bit easier is a good thing and like you said just hitting a button on the phone is way easier then going to each box. All of your comments Laura are just the best but I love " oh it's my time to shine" when you got to make your first repair! So good to see Benjamin out working with you and seeing the two of you working together! thanks for the video.
Thank you Laura, Aaron, and Lil’ Benjamin for helping us take our Minds off ALL that at times can weigh us down-in a not so good way! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! Love and prayers for ALL OUR GARDEN ANSWER FAMILIES AND GROUPIES💗💗💗 Laura-thank you for enticing us ALL TO BUY SEEDS! Lol A lot of seed packets...🙀🤷♀️😂
A lot of work but so worth it in your life! Everybody needs an Aaron to figure out the technical stuff. He’s great at it. All you have to do is plant amazing things and Enjoy! Y’all make a great team!
You and Aaron make me want to install irrigation. I think it would be fun to tinker with, notice I said tinker. That day you did a lot. You two are a wonderful team. Even Benjamin and Russell helped.
This video is exactly what I’ve been looking for. No one would dare say you two are not the real deal. 😜 Not only have you educated me you’ve entertained me along the way. 😂Thank You.
Loved seeing more of Aaron! I've missed seeing his contribution in front of the camera in addition to his very important contribution behind the scenes!
Far out there was a few breaks ... great job in fixing and programming the new ones in Laura and Aaron ... good to see little Benjamin joining in. ❤️🌸❤️
I never understood drip systems until I started watching your videos. My yard isn't very large but I still may install one down the road to make things easier. Great to see the whole family in the video (minus Cheddar) Benjamin is so cute. Aaron is so smart and organized. How will you bring water to the new property, that will take tons of drip tubes. Your phone will be loaded with different zones! Thanks for the video!! 💚
The timing of this video couldn't have been better! I've been trying to figure out how to adapt my existing system and didn't realize there were bluetooth timers available. Thank you for sharing this Laura and Aaron!
It's a lot of work in your garden...but, the efforts are worth it! You have so many gardens, that it makes sense to have a water irrigation system. It's interesting how you have to maintain it, and how technology is making it easier.
I love when Aaron’s more involved “on camera”. He cracks me up. 🤣 Thank you for all you guys do. This was one of the best moments I had on my 40th birthday. #alwayslearning
I’m feeling better about my teeny tiny yard now! 😂😂 If I ever get my garden going, I think I will enjoy the watering with a hose, because I’m a water lover anyway. I certainly understand how the drip tubing would be beneficial to your big, beautiful space, though!! Thank you so much for sharing your gifts and knowledge. I’m completely addicted to your videos.
Wow, I had no idea this sort of thing existed and it's exactly what we need. We have old valves that used to have electrical decades ago, but that's long gone. We have to go out and turn each solenoid by hand and remember (that's the hard part) to turn them back off again. This will be a game changer for us!
This was awesome! Thank you for doing this video! I know it was a lot of work, and appreciate you sharing to give us a great understanding of how your systems work! 💚🙌🌿
You make this look so easy. Love, love love the idea of using my phone to change watering schedule depending on need. I love the teepee . Have you thought about growing some big gourds on the teepee or a fence? That would be fascinating for your son, and us grown ups too. You could make some birdhouses or planters from the gourds after they dry out. Can’t wait to see what’s next. You both make a great team!
Aaron it's called standard wire connector (the ones the screw the electrical wires together). The end cap for the PVC pipes need to have a screw on couplet or a glued one otherwise it doesn't stay because of the water pressure. Cool deal, thank you for sharing and seeing the boys was a treat... Benjamin😍. God bless you, stay safe. Hugs💜🤗
I just watched some of your videos from 2016. It is fun because I know what happens. Looking at all the plants and bushes you had to pull out!! Ooh! and the beautiful way your vision has come to futurity.( big word ) And of course I learned how to make bows and trim a tree with ribbon. Then the best is Benjamin. This being at home all the time, U tube has been fun . My granddaughter turns 14 tomorrow. They are coming to the deck so we can sing to her. I can't wait. Keep up making this place You and your little families, I will be watching, Joyce
I love seeing videos of you and Aaron together. I thought your irrigation already was controlled by your phones, not sure why I thought that. At least with the new property, you’ll be able to set it up much more suitably. Thank you for the videos! ❤️
Hi Laura and Aaron! Even though I don't need a system like this, I'm sure it was very helpful fo those who do. Thank you for sharing! Good seeing Benjamin and Russel, too!
Great teamwork! Smart to change out to the newer nodes & do a whole system check before starting to focus on the new property. Thanks for explaining everything Aaron in common terms for us, you did GREAT. Nice to see how you guys actually tackle this every year. Thx!
It's a good thing Benjamin's pump sprayer says water only. Flash frame of him having the sprayer in his mouth! Gotta love little kids. Thanks for this video! Very informative.
So excited about the white bleeding hearts! It was one of my wish list plants and I finally got one last fall and planted it. Enjoying it soo much this spring. Beautiful!
Aaron thank you very much, you answered lots of questions. Perfect timing for me and our up coming irrigation expansion project of 22 zones off 6 taps plus paddock k-line. You have both made me very happy.
Hi Aaron, I am not an irrigation contractor but I have an underground sprinkler system in my yard so I am familiar with the setup. Looking at your 4 independent controller boxes, I think there is a solution for you without having to use those Hunter node controllers on each box. You can get a 16-zone (4 boxes multiplied by 4 lines) controller box unit and wire each of those solenoids to the new controller. The nice thing about this setup is that you no longer need to use batteries since the new box runs off of an AC adapter and you can program each zone for day and watering duration. You can also mount the 16-zone controller inside your house, garage, barn, or wherever it is close and just run the wires to the 4 boxes. You may not have the bluetooth control via your phone with the new 16-zone controller but it is basically a set and forget setup once you have determined the length of watering time for each zone.
Aaron thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us! You always have such valuable and thorough information! Q: can we hear your thoughts on installing a new irrigation system? If you had to redo the whole thing what would you do differently?
It is clear and genius! Freeing up more time for family and more plantings. Irrigation is on my list this summer. Thank you for another great video. Enjoy this day🌷
Have you ever tried a blow torch? Just heat the tube with a few seconds of heat to soften and expand the plastic. When it cools it'll retract and create a nice tight seal. It makes it considerably easier to cram joints and couplers together. It saved me from some very sore fingers when setting up my own irrigation system! Love your videos, they do so much to brighten my day!
This was a very informative video! Watching you repair drip tube over and over just helped build my confidence in how it all works, as I am about to set mine up! Thank you!
I also could not stop laughing when the camera would pan an area and she would notice where Benjamin was standing that a bush needed replacing and then mention to Aaron that mulch was needed somewhere. Laura, it’s going to be interesting when Benjamin gets older to see if you will allow him to take the spot light once in a while where he would provide commentary and instructions! Aaron, thank goodness you’re the technical expert because the watering system still looks very complicated to me!
We literally just had drip irrgation installed last week due to your influence!! THANK YOU. We tried to get the overhead irragation to do the job for years and years. I gave up this year and went to drip after watching how yours works
Great video!! 👍🏻👏🏻🌷I REALLY needed the encouragement to set up a drip system 💦💦and this really helped and also helped show me how to repair and maintain. AND I adore any videos that are laid back with Benjamin☺️ in them! So stinkin cute 💕 thanks so much for giving us something distracting to watch during this time! 🌻🌻🌻🌻
I have drip irrigation now thanks to y’all!! Adding more zones this year for a formal veggie garden and my front foundation beds! It really really helps being able to see the process in several different videos too!
Omg Benjamin is so so cute with his lawnmower. Have you ever thought about setting up one irrigation box for your in tire yard and would you do this on the new property so you don't have irrigation boxes everywhere
For a large property the 'mainline' travels to the 'zones'. Whence the valve boxes. A smaller property a guy can get away with one valve box. Also there is so much componentry in a sprinkler system that needs to be accessible. The valve box was created for this access.
You make this look so easy...gives me a little confidence in at least trying when the water comes on in April. Do you ever do consulting work? I have 1.2 acre blank slate in Middleton... I just need someone to draw me a pretty yard!
Hi Laura, really waiting to see your gird drip set up. The question I always have is when you have a patch of bulbs or spinach, does the drip have to run around everything so every plant gets water or is it enough to circle the drip around the patch? Thanks for everything you post, you have always been my inspiration to do more in the garden!
Aaron should be in more videos (of course to add onto his huge workload lol) but also because he’s naturally admirable like Laura is and I feel like I love Garden Answer because it’s a gardening channel and also a family channel. I watched this whole video not for the topic, but because I love the gardening content and family content💝 AARON IS PART OF FAMILY CONTENT and should be seen more. Like if you’re with me 😂
Loved this one! Even though I wouldn’t need it on this scale, it’s so helpful to see how you’ve implemented it. Thanks for the consistent, wonderful content!
The best time to do any repairs and plant replacement, and for those who do not have a drip system, "new water hoses"! Every single one I have has kinks and they all have bad names right now!

Haha, im exactly the same. I do have a huge garden. but could never afford it :D
Stationerdy I agree, I have a yard but it has been rainy in California. This family just makes me happy.
8:17 Love how Aaron picks up the straight coupler and starts putting it in its place.
I often lament the wet weather we get here in Ireland, but when I see how much work goes into watering in a dry climate, I'm suddenly very grateful for all that rain! Thanks for the video guys 🤗
Another Hibernian? How joyous! I was curious if we would need ne over here, an irrigation system I mean. Or is it just a dry climate thing?

😳🤯me & my watering can are jealous😬
Aaron, between Christmas🎄lights, film/editing🎥, irrigation💦organization...your talents are endless...⭐️
It was so nice seeing EVERYONE in the video today! 🥰
I am forever grateful for Laura showing me how to do drip irrigation! It’s life changing! Glad it don’t have to get this complicated though. I would need an Aaron!🤣
I need an Aaron too :)
Im so grateful ive never given in to the sprinkler system.
I don’t feel so bad now, I thought we were the only ones cutting through drip lines when planting. Enjoyed seeing Aaron do his thing in the garden too. 😊
Dont need this kind of irrigation but loved seeing the whole family in front of the camera working together. :)

I love the whole family participation in this project. I know that Cheddar was inside sleeping and sending out good energy waves.
Yup. I love that. I was just wonder what that it factor was about this video that made it so Wholesome

Minds off ALL that at times can weigh us down-in a not so good way! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! Love and prayers for ALL OUR GARDEN ANSWER FAMILIES AND GROUPIES💗💗💗

🤣🤣🤣
This was such a fun video. I love how Benjamin repeats you. "Look Buddy", "Beautiful " 😍
I was thinking the same thing...lol
You and Aaron make me want to install irrigation. I think it would be fun to tinker with, notice I said tinker. That day you did a lot. You two are a wonderful team. Even Benjamin and Russell helped.
While my garden does not/will not have an irrigation system, I still loved watching the video....informative and entertaining! Thanks!
I am such a techie 👩💻 that I totally enjoyed this video. You and Aaron did such a great job of explaining everything. ❤️
That is awesome and easy....I literally thought you had trenched tubing all over.
Omg yess!! Hello from Colorado. Who else has been waiting for this video? Thank y’all, stay safe.
Aaron is serious husband goals! What a good egg. Love your family!
MsSkent17 I am on the look out for an Aaron like egg. 😃
What a cool team you guys are! Love seeing Benjamin helping with is tools!
This video is exactly what I’ve been looking for. No one would dare say you two are not the real deal. 😜 Not only have you educated me you’ve entertained me along the way. 😂Thank You.
Loved seeing more of Aaron! I've missed seeing his contribution in front of the camera in addition to his very important contribution behind the scenes!
I am so glad that I live in an area that gets plenty of rain in the summer that I rarely have to water.
Far out there was a few breaks ... great job in fixing and programming the new ones in Laura and Aaron ... good to see little Benjamin joining in. ❤️🌸❤️

Thanks for the simplicity and gentle chaos in the video. That how everyones life seems to be like right now.
Benjamin is the best :-) . He is the happiest kid with this wonderful garden. Thank you for the awesome content. We learned a lot.
Wow, I had no idea this sort of thing existed and it's exactly what we need. We have old valves that used to have electrical decades ago, but that's long gone. We have to go out and turn each solenoid by hand and remember (that's the hard part) to turn them back off again. This will be a game changer for us!
Never thought an irrigation video would be so much fun! Loves the info. Thank you guys😊❤
This was awesome! Thank you for doing this video! I know it was a lot of work, and appreciate you sharing to give us a great understanding of how your systems work! 💚🙌🌿
Aaron should do product reviews. His review on the old nodes was so clear and concise. “They suck!”
You make this look so easy. Love, love love the idea of using my phone to change watering schedule depending on need. I love the teepee . Have you thought about growing some big gourds on the teepee or a fence? That would be fascinating for your son, and us grown ups too.

Aaron it's called standard wire connector (the ones the screw the electrical wires together). The end cap for the PVC pipes need to have a screw on couplet or a glued one otherwise it doesn't stay because of the water pressure.
Cool deal, thank you for sharing and seeing the boys was a treat...
Benjamin😍. God bless you, stay safe. Hugs💜🤗
Hi Laura another great vid and a distraction from the news, which is much needed.
Stay safe!!
I just watched some of your videos from 2016. It is fun because I know what happens. Looking at all the plants and bushes you had to pull out!! Ooh! and the beautiful way your vision has come to futurity.( big word ) And of course I learned how to make bows and trim a tree with ribbon. Then the best is Benjamin. This being at home all the time, U tube has been fun . My granddaughter turns 14 tomorrow. They are coming to the deck so we can sing to her. I can't wait. Keep up making this place You and your little families, I will be watching, Joyce
Awe! I've been struggling to get my 10 year old daughter to go outside I bet she would LOVE playing with the spray pump! Thanks
Loved watching how an irrigation system works! Also loved seeing the whole family working together!! 💦😃
I love seeing videos of you and Aaron together. I thought your irrigation already was controlled by your phones, not sure why I thought that. At least with the new property, you’ll be able to set it up much more suitably. Thank you for the videos! ❤️
Wow! That’s a lot of work. But the beauty of your gardens is worth it.😊
Aaron! I love your montage and how u weaved Laura's voice as a transition. 21:10 Beautifully done.
Hi Laura and Aaron! Even though I don't need a system like this, I'm sure it was very helpful fo those who do. Thank you for sharing! Good seeing Benjamin and Russel, too!
LOL! I cracked up when you found your first break and were so excited! "YES! It's my time to shine, Aaron!" Y'all are too cute!!
I love when my family joins me in the garden!
Great teamwork! Smart to change out to the newer nodes & do a whole system check before starting to focus on the new property. Thanks for explaining everything Aaron in common terms for us, you did GREAT. Nice to see how you guys actually tackle this every year. Thx!
It's a good thing Benjamin's pump sprayer says water only. Flash frame of him having the sprayer in his mouth! Gotta love little kids. Thanks for this video! Very informative.
At 12:10 they are called wire nuts
Yes!
Yep
I found myself yelling that at my phone lol!!!
“It’s a WIRE NUT!!!” Lol 😂
I’ve been inside for to long lol 😂
Marettes
So excited about the white bleeding hearts! It was one of my wish list plants and I finally got one last fall and planted it. Enjoying it soo much this spring. Beautiful!
Benjamin distraction: hairplane
Laura distraction: shrub
❤
This is so calming. Its storming outside where I live in the Philippines and it's the middle of the night. This is so in for the mood. Thanks.
This video was so satisfying to watch! Also provided some tips in how to set up/ improve current irrigation. Thanks for sharing this with us! 👏

Thanks for taking us along with you, it is very much appreciated! So nice to be out in a garden and yours is especially beautiful!!! 🐓🐈🌻🌼🙂
Wow.... That drip irrigation system is so smart 👍
Thank you to you and Aaron, such a helpful video and perfect timing as we are about to start to attempt this on our property.
It is clear and genius! Freeing up more time for family and more plantings. Irrigation is on my list this summer. Thank you for another great video. Enjoy this day🌷
Have you ever tried a blow torch? Just heat the tube with a few seconds of heat to soften and expand the plastic. When it cools it'll retract and create a nice tight seal. It makes it considerably easier to cram joints and couplers together. It saved me from some very sore fingers when setting up my own irrigation system! Love your videos, they do so much to brighten my day!
So glad you covered all this. And just setting up on the grid pattern verses willy-nilly saved me a ton of time, i was temped to do the loop-thing.
This was a very informative video! Watching you repair drip tube over and over just helped build my confidence in how it all works, as I am about to set mine up! Thank you!
I really appreciate this. Very, very thoughtful. And showing really helps in figuring out and knowing how you do such a great job so we can too. TY.
Laura you cracked me up so much in this one “It’s my time to shine” “That’s not proper!” “Look I can water some plants”😂😂 Thanks for the laughs!😋❤️
I learn so much from you Laura thank you for sharing your knowledge
I also could not stop laughing when the camera would pan an area and she would notice where Benjamin was standing that a bush needed replacing and then mention to Aaron that mulch was needed somewhere.

Aaron, thank goodness you’re the technical expert because the watering system still looks very complicated to me!
How interesting. Glad you are catching all the leaks. God Bless.
Thanks for taking the time to film this insight for us. Greatly informative. I'm ready to check my system and to install more zones now.
We literally just had drip irrgation installed last week due to your influence!! THANK YOU. We tried to get the overhead irragation to do the job for years and years. I gave up this year and went to drip after watching how yours works

confusing!!! glad you guys know. What would we do without our phones!!
Are we looking at another pot challenge with you and Aaron along the fence line ? So fun 😁😉🦋🌹🌺
So nice to see you both in front of the camera and the whole family really :)
So enjoyed this Laura
I have drip irrigation now thanks to y’all!! Adding more zones this year for a formal veggie garden and my front foundation beds! It really really helps being able to see the process in several different videos too!
This was soooo Great! Thankyou you guys! Can’t get enough drip council, thank you so much!
You got the garage/barn painted white! It looks fantastic!! (I could see it over Aaron's shoulder at 5:50 😘)
My new drip goes in this year for the raised beds and hanging baskets. Thank you for the nudge. 💜💙
Omg Benjamin is so so cute with his lawnmower. Have you ever thought about setting up one irrigation box for your in tire yard and would you do this on the new property so you don't have irrigation boxes everywhere
For a large property the 'mainline' travels to the 'zones'. Whence the valve boxes. A smaller property a guy can get away with one valve box. Also there is so much componentry in a sprinkler system that needs to be accessible. The valve box was created for this access.
That’s nice that you can take a photo of the area for the online app.
You make this look so easy...gives me a little confidence in at least trying when the water comes on in April. Do you ever do consulting work? I have 1.2 acre blank slate in Middleton... I just need someone to draw me a pretty yard!
Just copy Laura's layout (ask first)
Hi Laura, really waiting to see your gird drip set up. The question I always have is when you have a patch of bulbs or spinach, does the drip have to run around everything so every plant gets water or is it enough to circle the drip around the patch? Thanks for everything you post, you have always been my inspiration to do more in the garden!
Aaron should be in more videos (of course to add onto his huge workload lol) but also because he’s naturally admirable like Laura is and I feel like I love Garden Answer because it’s a gardening channel and also a family channel. I watched this whole video not for the topic, but because I love the gardening content and family content💝 AARON IS PART OF FAMILY CONTENT and should be seen more. Like if you’re with me 😂
THANK YOU for this video explaining your irrigation system! This was very helpful! 💚🌱
Loved this one! Even though I wouldn’t need it on this scale, it’s so helpful to see how you’ve implemented it. Thanks for the consistent, wonderful content!
Looking forward to the videos showing you changing over to the grid system from your “Willy nilly” style.
Thank you! Even when you just run around making repairs, I learn something.
I saw a large well at the center of the new property. It housed all watering needs but looked like something out of a fairy book.
The best time to do any repairs and plant replacement, and for those who do not have a drip system, "new water hoses"! Every single one I have has kinks and they all have bad names right now!
