    Thanks for the video I will attempt this to my garden as I'm time poor . Question though i have a foot path that separates the garden , how do I put the plastic pipes to the other side? I'm assuming I just place it across the foot path where it doesn't cause a trip hazard ? Another question how often do you water , is it daily, how long for and again assuming depends on the seasons ? Thanks

      Depends on the season, I’d say daily in the summer, maybe once every three days in the winter? Very much depends where you are though and how much rain you’re getting! Re the paths, are they concrete or could you dig them under?

    Lovely video, what kind of mulch would you suggest using in garden beds and the container herbs please? I realize that I need to take out weeds almost every 2 days from my garden bed

    • @ChristieCooper
      @ChristieCooper  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I’m using sugar cane straw which works quite well! Good luck!

    What about the residual water left in the tubing between watering times? Does the hot water (in the summer) damage the plants at all? I have a very long hose but small garden...im afraid I'd burn the plants

      Good thought, haven’t come across burnt plants before!

    During winter do all of these devices freeze? Looks like their not buried below the frost line. Or do you have to bring everything inside when it gets cold?

    • @ChristieCooper
      @ChristieCooper  27 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Living in Melbourne they don't tend to freeze because it doesn't get that cold! Where are you based?

      @@Wilderness384 Do you have a compressor or access to one? There is an attachment (blow out plug) you can get to hook up to your hose to blow the water out with the compressor before the cold weather hits and works very well.

    Can use the thin hose from the faucet to the sprinklers instead of the thicker hose?

    • @ChristieCooper
      @ChristieCooper  หลายเดือนก่อน

      I don’t think it would work as you wouldn’t be able to get enough water through!

    Do you leave the tap on all the time? How does the timer stop the water from running?

    • @ChristieCooper
      @ChristieCooper  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      You leave the tap turned on, but timer prevents the water from running except for the designated time periods.

    How are you going to use the hose after the timer ?

    • @ChristieCooper
      @ChristieCooper  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      After the timer the hose turns off. But you can still use the other side manually whenever you want to.
