Irrigation advice
« on: March 05, 2019, 13:59 »
Hi

I have a fairly large greenhouse (it’s a Gabriel Ashh Harlow Carr) and I usually water by hand. This year I’m going to be away a fair bit and was thinking of installing some form of automatic watering system. Basically I have two large manger troughs running down one side in which I grow peppers and aubergines. Staging on the other side with seed trays and pots. On the floor both sides I have tomatoes in pots a nectarine tree at the far end and two hanging baskets with tumbler tomatoes in them. Can anyone advise the best system for this setup, would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Colin

Do you have access to a tap at home, or is this down on the allotment?
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...
