What do you mean your new location doesn't have enough water for flood?
I personally like flood over drip. |

the biggest con to drip irrigation is that it creates channels within the medium that the water flows down... similar to a river... thus preventing water from reaching all roots...
flooding is good because the whole root system is getting hit with wah wah.... just wondering why you closed the poll after 6 votes? hmmm |

Is this true? I read that flooding does the same, but drip allows the entire media to absorb water evenly. |
