Episode 40 — Irrigation — Drips, Drops, and Sanity

Today we’re diving into the surprisingly deep world of irrigation — from watering cans and hoses all the way to drip systems, clay ollas, and passive hydrology.

John shares the saga of how a water main failure transformed his yard into an irrigation experiment, and why consistency matters more than sheer volume when it comes to watering.

We cover practical tools, day-to-day realities, challenges, long-term payoff, and even some ancient techniques that modern gardeners are rediscovering. A cozy and thoughtful long-form episode for anyone looking to water smarter, stress less, and grow stronger. 💧🌱
