Micro irrigation systems

you need a water timer ( any brand )

pop to wilkos and they do a kit of pipe and clips, joints and T joints and nozzles, the pipe is 10 M long and you just cut it to suit , its much cheaper than other kits and just as good

Well, I have just ordered this morning Auto Aquapod 10 with AC Pro Timer and Rain Sensor. It was £49.99, and should be with me in the next few days. Just the timer and rain sensor (might be a good idea since I live in Lancashire - always rains, just not when I am on holiday) ) alone would have cost me more than that!!!

Update - I connected my system last night and it works!!! I love it. I am seriously considering getting the "whole works" and setting up watering for all the garden, with supply pipe running around the perimeter and the sprinklers/drippers for where they are needed.

Have a look at soaker hoses for your beds. I picked up the Aldi kit is works ok but as well as hozelock some of the drippier squirt out too much and some not at all. but it worth a punt for £5 had t use the regulator off the hoze lock. I think ill have more of play in july when i move house and are not using the front yard to garden in.
