By Julie Renier I have been a gardener all my life- planting flowers and vegetables has always been my most important rite of spring. Each spring, I compulsively fill every avail- able space with something that blooms or is edible un- til I must finally quit plant- ing due to lack of space...or a lack of emitters. I find no joy in hand wa- tering my gardens and land- scaping. Decades before water conservation was a concern, my interest in con- serving my time sparked my interest in drip irrigation. The packed red clay soils of both Missouri and the foot- hills of Red Bluff have made drip irrigation even more of a necessity. The water runs off the clay if not delivered slowly and directly. Even if you are fortunate enough to live in the valleys with real soildripirrigationisstillwell worth the effort. Drip irrigation allows you todelivertheexactamountof watertheplantneedswhenit needsit-savingwaterandin- creasing the health and pro- ductivity of the plant. A bat- tery timer on the system al- lowsyoutowaterwhenmost beneficial, depending upon the plant. You can find a great deal of useful information about drip irrigation on the inter- net or from books of course. I would highly recommend drawing a map with the di- mensionsoftheareas(zones) youwanttowatersoyoucan roughlycalculateyour parts. A word of advice- buy more than you need and save your receipt. There are many dif- ferent systems and materi- als that can be utilized but the following outlines what I use for my 4 zones to wa- ter grape vines, an orchard, vegetable garden and land- scaping. There are some basic parts you will need- each faucet requires a backflow preventer, a battery timer (you can buy them with up to 4 individual outlets that allow you to program each zone) , a water filter to keep your system from clogging with particles and a pres- sure reducer. The drip irri- gation system itself requires main tubing (5/8" is com- mon), reusable hand tight- ening fittings ( corners, 3 ways, straight connectors), goof plugs (2 sizes on each one), spaghetti or micro tub- ing lines ( to run from the main tubing as needed), soaker lines and emitters. Tools needed are the tub- ing punch tool and scissors or a box cutter. The end of the system are emitters which come in 3 styles- flag types, pressure compensating and micro spray emitters (which create various degrees and sizes of umbrella shaped watering). All of the emitters are rated as to gallons per hour (gph) of water delivery. The emit- ters you need will depend upon the length of your line, the elevation changes and the plant types that are be- ing watered. You will need to do some math to make sure you will have adequate pressure for each zone. We are so very fortunate to live in an area of com- mercially irrigated fruits and nuts because this has created a wonderful re- source- a locally owned and operated business which has the knowledge and inventory for drip ir- rigation for all gardeners. I rely upon Alsco, Inc. for my supplies and expert as- sistance when needed. If you are a beginner or have questions, be sure to take your map. There is great satisfaction in hearing my system sur- rounding the house begin to water early in the morning on designated days. I love to go outside to watch the drip irrigation system at work. Flocks of small birds have learned to sip a fresh drink from the emitters as they run. I have the satisfaction of knowing that my efforts are conserving water and my time by providing my plants with the water they require automatically. It is also comforting to know that if we need to leave for a few days, my plants will thrive in our absence.
