Watering Plants

Best practices?

I'd like to learn how to be more efficient, more resourceful when watering plants. Our sandy soil can be quite tricky; we can water a lot only to discover that under the surface the soil is still bone-dry.

On this page I'd like to share some videos I watched... please let me know what you know or figured out... Life is short and precious; together it is more fun.


How to irrigate sandy soil

In this 23 minute video -- just music -- a guy is cutting plastic pipe in pieces and adds grooves to let water seep through. Later he sticks the pipe segments into the ground and fills them with water. Interesting idea.
