Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Micro-irrigation is an irrigation system that delivers water directly to the roots of your plants. This means that less water evaporates because it does not reach the surface of the soil. You save water, and your plants get exactly the right amount of water. It is ideal for raised beds, buckets, potted plants, and flower boxes. With micro-irrigation, weeds are also kept away because only the desired plants receive water.

There are various methods of micro-irrigation such as drippers, sprinklers, and downspray nozzles. Drippers, also known as drip irrigation, release water slowly and directly to the roots. Sprinklers distribute a fine mist of water over an area. Downspray nozzles direct the water jet downward, thus avoiding wet leaves. These methods are suitable for raised beds, flowerbeds, buckets, pots, and perennials. You can choose the method that best suits your plants.
