Yes you do have a very nice collection and have some very hard environmental issues to get over. It really is a huge credit to you.



Am in my 60th year and about to go back to school to increase my training in an area I truly love and that is social behavior.

So not so much time for watering and a watering system is needed. Have been buying a lot of different watering bits a pieces cheap out of China and of all places Bunnings Hardware which is cheaper than China sometimes.

Have tried many different ways to water. From my horticultural background I know those little fiddly micro sprayers or jets get clogged with algae so have no need to go down that road.

Am about to put in a watering system that resembles rain drops. So the water falls off the roof , shelving and directly from the sprinklers.

If you make a watering line go into a circle so the start and end of the watering line is connected at the main water out flow point. It evens up all the sprinkler heads along this watering line. It gives the water outlets all the same pressure at the same time. The benefit this gives is to increase your water delivery from large sprinkler heads without one sprinkler dominating and another in the same water line just not really working.
