water butts and siphons

These are two of my old wheeley bins, linked together by a siphon. Works very well and easy to do - idea from Bob Flowerdew


Self-sufficient in rasberries and bindweed. Slug pellets can be handy.

Most useful thing on our plots I reckon  :D   I harvest as much water as possible from the shed roof. I've attached a length of soaker hose to the tap but it doesn't seem to work. Don't know if it's blocked or there's not enough pressure  :?  :?   The butt is raised up on blocks
