Plants with the same watering needs should be placed together. Don’t put your drought-tolerant plants next to plants that need a lot of water. Plant nutrients, in the form of fertilizer, is also tied up and held in the thatch.
Drip irrigation, when used correctly, prevents drought stress but is not designed to correct drought stress like sprinkler irrigation, which wets all the soil. Drip irrigation is the most expensive and least-used type, but offers the best results in delivering water to plant roots with minimal losses. Drip irrigations have been used commercially for many years by farmers growing vegetables etc.
Drip irrigation is useful for large groupings of decorative plants in planter boxes or beds, such as around building lobbies and shopping malls where leaks and mismanagement doesn’t cause the same damage as when used in furnished environments. It is among the broad class of technologies known as micro-irrigation. Drip systems deliver smaller amounts of water to the root zone of plants. This method conserves water and avoids getting the plant leaves wet, which can lead to fungus problems. Drip and microspray systems use 13mm tubing, while pop-up systems use 19mm tube. Drip irrigation systems can be placed on the surface of the soil or under the soil.
Drip irrigation is one of the best ways to make efficient use of your water resources, and when combined with the concept of irrigation zones can be even more efficient.
Lawn irrigation systems are becoming more and more prevalent in landscapes. The use of automatic sprinkler controllers, electric control valves, pop-up spray heads and/or the use of pop-up rotors makes keeping your landscaping or yard maintained in your absence of a breeze. Lawn sprinkler systems are very important for the routine maintenance of a high quality lawn. During periods of prolonged drought, turf grass will go into a dormant state in an effort to protect itself.
