 A recent blog post focused on water efficiency and ways not to use up water. In that blog , we talked about soaker hoses but didn't mention irrigation systems. This is exactly what we're going to cover. Irrigation systems enable you to place hoses in designated areas in your garden, so the holes placed at the right intervals on the hoses will direct water to the roots of your plants. This allows you to let water trickle into the ground over a long period of duration. Overhead sprinklers spray water across a wide area, however because the water travels through the air, the majority of it evaporates before it ever gets to the soil. The water that soaks into soil will also evaporate, especially if it is exposed to the hot California sun. If you've been using a sprinkler system and you're paying for water, it's likely to be significantly higher due to it.

The Benefits of Drip Irrigation Systems Saving Water Drip irrigation systems are designed to limit water waste and prevent the loss of water through evaporation. Drip irrigation systems could use 30-to-50 percent less water than traditional watering systems. The longer it takes for plants to obtain water Drip irrigation systems perform better in getting water to the root of plants. Because the water is absorbed into the ground so slowly, there is no runoff. This reduces soil erosion, which is a serious problem in Southern California. Helps to prevent Weeds from taking water and Soil Nutrients from Plants Since drip irrigation systems channel the water to root systems, weeds will struggle to deprive the soil of nutrition and water. That means that you'll be able to reduce the number of weeds. Proper Way to Prevent Plant Diseases If there is excessive humidity, fungal diseases, pest and insect issues, may develop. The drip irrigation system leaves the plant's leaves dry, which means it's harder for these illnesses to spread and develop. It is easily adaptable The majority of drip watering systems are made to allow for simple adjustments or modifications to fit the needs of your plants as well as where they are in your yard.
