Bless your heart. !!!
Those muscadines are going to love that water. I really liked that name plate tag. Very cool.
Trying to be a little organized. They definitely love water, we’re amazed at how some seem to take off vs those without irrigation. Appreciate you watching!!
@@DeanFamilyAcres Yeah man. I got to give mine some fertilizer tomorrow, I missed on the 15 🥲
We definitely need to do this with ours and I would like you to put in some for our garden as well. Great information brother and thanks for sharing!
It’s making an evident difference. Now if we can get up that deer fence we’ve talked about for years. 😤
Great video! I have 3/4” poly tubing on a timer for my garden and 1/4” soaker tubing on my strawberries. Using drippers like you did, plus the diameter of pipe, pressure is not an issue. Soaker hose on the other hand really needs to be on a closed loop system because the pressure never gets to the end the same way as the top otherwise.
Two things you might change in the future: 1) those slip unions are not meant to be permanent ;2) above ground plumbing like that, you should consider schedule 80 grey pipe instead of 40. It is designed to withstand uv exposure.
Great tips.
- Union was intentional as it is seasonal and will be removed for winter.
- I may paint the PVC to prevent any damage, in general it'll last a very long time.
- Hoping to modify the soaker hose portion one day, for now we're just glad to have the blueberries fully irrigated.
Thanks for sharing this. What material is that drip tubing, is it drinking water safe?
Appreciate you watching! I doubt it’s approved for drinking water because of the additional costs & regulations.
@@DeanFamilyAcres thank you
