For every 2.3 feet of elevation you gain 1 pound of pressure. Page 12 of the new (free) Dripworks catalog talks a little bit about low pressure systems.
@DripWorks – Cool! Thanks!!!
Fantastic video! Thank you!
Thank you! Love your videos : )
Excellent video as always!
Garden season is fast approaching and this is sure to be abig help.
great info..thanks
I enjoyed watching it from the start to the end, very informative and nice nice background music, by the way.
Learnt a lot in just 8:18 minutes. Thank you.
@PCOStherealdeal All 3 types of timers that you asked about are available. Dripworks has both battery timers and electric timers. We used to carry a solar timer, but it just wasn't selling so we had to discontinue it.
Thanks a lot for posting this video! I didn't know how easy this could be and I based my setup off of this and posted a video today of my setup. Thanks again. Your video's rock!
1:55 ha-ha he said nibble…
The video operator of this clip needs to take basic course in Lighting 101. Way to much contrast and dark shadows where you need light. You can't see clearly what they are doing. You need some artificial light to highlight your subject. Details are lost in shadows. Excellent video but lacking in this important detail.
This is excellent, I cannot wait to get started. The only thing I would like to see is a run down of the supplies needed with photos and names, that would really be cool. I know you went through some of it in the beginning as you attached things to the house line but it would have been good to see what kind of elbows, what they look like up close so I can get what I need on my first trip to home depot. Love it though, just built my beds so can't wait to build this!
about how much would all this cost? the equipment, I mean. And can I get all this stuff at Lowes?
Yup cheaper then you think
You can do two acres for about 300 if you do it yourself
@megaunitman can you explain how you can do two acres for only $300? 7,500 ft of drip tape costs $250. That doesn't include filter(s), primaries or fittings. You need a lot more than 7,500 ft for 2 acres
Hi Patti, Love your videos, I just wanted to ask you about your drip system…. I watched all of your videos and I noticed that all of your beds don't have drip systems. Do you just manually water your beds or do you have drip systems in all of them now? Thanks for all you do!
this is great and easy to follow…
how do I find part two???????
I really liked the video. I have always thought it was tougher to do, but it looks pretty easy. Now I will try it too!
Pretty cool. Getting ready to do one myself. This video is helpful.
Drip irrigation is one of the most important in terms of agriculture. This will save up more water. This is a must have in every raised bed vegetable gardens. Perfect for every gardeners out-there that wanted to have the easiest and time less in watering their plants. Excellent!
this is a very helpful video
