Hi All - I’m thinking about getting a drip irrigation system for my garden and was curious if anyone here has tried one. Anything that has worked well, or not so much? Brand recommendations? Rain Bird and Hunter have come up in my searches so far. Other considerations a beginner wouldn’t think about? I’m in the US, so I also need it to be able to be shipped here.

    I’ve had good luck avoiding those by setting the irrigation timer so watering happens just before dawn. This way the water is absorbed by the soil before the sun then dries the foliage.

      Oh that makes so much sense I don’t know why I hadn’t considered that. That might be what I do while I read up more on irrigation systems and angst about what to do, ha
