Row by Row Episode 234: New Irrigation Kits for 2023


Listen Later

Join Us! Tonight, we're discussing our new irrigation kits for the new year of 2023! Let's Grow Together!Raised Bed Irrigation Kit: Our Raised Bed Irrigation Kit contains everything you need to water your raised bed gardens in the most effective and environmentally friendly way. Drip irrigation allows you to use less water while watering more effectively. This is because you are only placing water directly where your plants need it - at the roots. Because you're not watering the leaves, disease pressure and pest pressure will be greatly reduced. This kit will support 8 (4 ft. by 8 ft.) raised beds with 4 feet between them.Raised Bed Irrigation Kit Includes:2- 100 ft. roll 1/4 tubing with emitters1 – 20 PSI Filter Regulator Combo1 – Figure 8 End Clamp1 – Green Hole Punch20 – Goof Plugs10-transfer barbs2 – 50 ft. 1/4″ tubing40 – 1/4″ elbows10 – 1/4″ flow valve10 – 1/4″ tees1 -30ft mainline tubing100 – Tubing Stakes10 – Garden Wire PinsRaised Bed Irrigation Kit Requirements:Water hose – connects to a 3/4″ water hose or 3/4″ spigot.Pressure – PSI should be below 50 psi and 8 gallons per minute. Requires a flow rate between 0.4 to 8 gallons per minute. To calculate your flow rate, simply record the time (in minutes that it takes to fill a 5-gallon bucket with water. Then divide 5 by the time above to obtain your gallon-per-minute rate. For example, if it takes 30 seconds (0.5 minutes) to fill a 5-gallon bucket, your flow rate is 10 gallons per minute because:5 gal / 0.5 min = 10 gal/minRow length – Our tubing can be used on a maximum row length of 30 ft. at 20 psi. We don’t recommend using rows longer than 30 feet. If rows are too long, water will not be equally distributed throughout the tubing along the row.Row number – With a flow rate of 5 gallons per minute, our tubing can support 300 feet of tubing. That’s the equivalent of 30 rows that are 10 feet long. To calculate how much tubing your system can support, first calculate your flow rate based on the example above. For example, if your flow rate is 8 gallons per minute, the maximum length of tape your system can support is 480 feet. The flow rate on the tubing is 0.5 gallons per emitter per hour. The emitter spacing is 6″. Flow rate per foot/1 gallon per hour. Small Drip Irrigation Kit: Our Small Drip Irrigation Kit contains everything your need to water your vegetable garden in the most effective and environmentally friendly way. Drip irrigation allows you to use less water while watering more effectively. This is because you are only placing water directly where your plants need it – at the roots.
