i like dripworks too, fwiw

imho simpler is better when it comes to drip irrigation

double filtered is great, and always check the filters, at least a couple times a week. Keep a few clean ones of each model/size you need on hand for fast action switch outs when in the feild, then when you get back to the work station you can take your time cleaning the dirty filters (which i prefer to do by soaking in bucket overnight with a h2o2 solution and using diff sized brushes depending on the filter style i.e disc or mesh ect), without your garden skipping a beat. Shit is designed to work like this, simple. It only takes a second and prevents a clogged filter which is usually the only headache you deal with when using drip irrigation. They even make timers specifically for low psi setups, if thats something one would have to deal with.

Timers, poly line, pressure compensating emitters ect... it makes it all so easy and simple. That being said, if one chooses to handwater, Id say they have a pretty good understanding of the daily changes and needs of each plant, which can be helpful, and easy if the garden isnt to big

but on any sort of semi mersh farm a drip system is the way to go, and add mulch if you want to conserve even more water

Bodhis for the win BTW, I think there is some serious outdoor potential in his Snow Lotus kush crosses. We will see in a couple months i guess. I was just in santa cruz and snagged a few more packs for next year.

If you don't mind, curious where in S.C. they are available? That club in S.D. has them, but that is way to far for me. S.C. is so nice, wouldn't mind making a little trip down there anyways.

Dripworks is no doubt a better system, not saying that. Just wanted to throw out another option. By all means, if you can afford the dripwork set up then that is what you should go with.

Keep killin it.

Damn 6 hours of watering, do you guys tag-team every hour or so?

Finally got my drip system completed last week. Saving me a ton of time.



Are you the sexy shirtless underwear model, or is that Drue Bleam?

rub it in why don't you.

btw that's me, Drue Bleam is more of a bear in comparison to my slender twink frame , that might why we make such a great couple :biggrin: . sorry, bay area humor.

here's DB standing next to a late replacement SFV OG.

The garden is looking good man!

How is the native soil where you're at? Obviously it's dry on the surface but how is it a few inches down & beyond?
