What is the best way to water container plants?
To start a drip system for containers or pots, use our kit model FM01 for 10 pots or FS50 for 22 containers and pots. Our suggestion is to use a combination of 1/4″ drip soaker line and misters for large containers and individual drippers for small pots. For larger or longer containers use a 1/4″ soaker line (drip line with .4 GPH dripper every 12″). For pots use 1-2 .5 GPH drippers per pot. First, divide the containers and pots into groups with similar sizes and similar watering needs. It is also advisable to divide containers and pots into groups that are either in full sun or in shaded areas. We have made a list (pot and basket parts list and installation ) what we think are the best steps to help you install this system. Please be aware that every installation application is different and we cannot make this link perfect for every situation. If you do not find the exact information that pertains to your application, send as an email with what you would like to do and we will provid
