I,d love to see a written version of this process with a materials list!

[@janetta5827]

Yes please!!!!!! I just came to ask the same. I just spent this weekend research this very thing, so great timing.

[@Dingle1234]

Yes, and any instructions for winterizing?

[@sueprovostwilliams3824]

There’s a link in the description to all the supplies for drip

[@katiedavis5861]

@@Dingle1234 for winterizing we have our sprinklers blown out. For this I would assume you would just unplug from the faucet, though I would be concerned about residual water in the drip lines.

[@anitacox651]

There is a transcript option on each video, when you touch the “more” on main screen and scroll down past all the links

[@dellablair5854]

Please tell Aaron we appreciate his excellent camera work ! You guys work so well together . I love that Aaron knows you so well and is fine with you just doing it myself syndrome 😊

[@doanetriggs5563]

This video is going to make history as one of the best drip system tutorials available!!! Kudos for a job exceptionally well done.

[@annjohns9939]

What a wonderful thing to do for Aaron's sister. She has received a huge blessing!! Most of us could not give a gift like this even if we wanted to!!!!

[@nataliecooper2042]

Really appreciate this "small space" garden irrigation video. Your home and garden area is so inspirational to look at in your videos, but the size of this project (a common house backyard) is much more relatable to most home gardeners. Thank you for including a smaller project, from start to finish. It becomes very relatable to the average gardener. Love all that you do, both big and small.

[@sophian7366]

Fo real.

[@ferganwalker]

Hello Laura & Aaron, what a fab vlog. Your visual presentation of all the required watering tape was amazing. It made me feel that I could tackle this project. Everything in this garden is coming together wonderfully due to you and Aaron's hard work x

[@desigyal04]

I’ve been watching garden answer for years and this has to be one of the most useful videos yet! You just made it so easy for those with smaller yard space to set up drip irrigation. Thank you for the high quality informative video! 😊

[@teresaclause6035]

This makes it easier for us newbies to really get started. Because some of us are visual just like you Laura. Thanks to both you and Aaron for putting this together.💞

[@ritagraham]

This was extremely helpful. It seems like an intimidating project to me, but taking it in phases and showing us the process is really helpful. Thanks so much.

[@kimritchie3521]

Thank you so much, Laura and Aaron. I have been waiting for a video like this. Irrigation from start to finish off a faucet. I watched the video 3 times.😂 so helpful

[@chrisrennix2925]

This is very important, Renee got it right. You are required by electrical code to put any electrical wires that go underground in a metal or electrical grade conduit rated for outdoors and bury it anywhere from 18"-36", depending on your local codes.

[@maryalicehuffstetler3026]

Aaron's sister is one lucky lady. Now Aaron's and Laura's "favorite old aunt" needs all this stuff done to her flower beds...😂. You 2 (and I know there's other people like you) are pretty darn cool for helping out with family,friends, and other people to make the area around their homes beautiful. I admire and thank you for helping out other people with your knowledge and experience with all the things you do.

[@jennifergrant6471]

I love this!!! It’s so awesome, it’s so helpful to see these things laid out. Thank you for what you do! Blessings to you and sweet family!

[@donhorn548]

Great project. The garden area will be enjoyed for years. A follow up garden tour(s) would be interesting and enjoyable. Good video series!

[@faithlewis311]

Great visual. I think I could tackle drip for my raised beds after seeing this video. Thanks so much!

[@fulltimecreative24]

Oh lovely, setting up drip is like icing on a cake , the plants will be the fancy decorations. Laura and Aaron make it look so doable for anyone ❤

[@alexishodgson7624]

This is seriously so great!!! It really helps us with one space that needs an overhaul and there are so many new gardeners that just don't know where to start. Thanks for all you guys do!

[@summermoongarden]

This video makes me thankful we live in a place where regular rain happens! We do have some areas of our garden on drip but we paid someone to install it cause it is a pretty complicated process. But now we aren’t needing to use it very much cause we’ve had so much rain lately. You guys have excellent expertise!❤

[@AllTheArtsy]

I'm near the equator and we have half the year in scorching heat (~39 °C) and half the year in monsoon rain/typhoon. It's awful 😂😂😂 I would rather have dry climate and I can control moisture myself.

[@seanaames6855]

@AlltheArtsy The problem with living in a dry climate is that water is a finite resource. We only have so much that we have access to underground, and refilling the aquifer takes hundreds of years, so we won't have access to water for a vey long time, if we run the Aquifer out. I think I read somewhere that our Aquifer refills at a rate of less than an inch per year. We live in NW Kansas. Western Kansas/Eastern Colorado/SW Nebraska have been experiencing drought conditions for a long time, so our Auquifer isn't refilling at the rate that we are using water from it. If I remember correctly, Eastern Colorado, NW Kansas, and SW Nebraska are on the same aquifer.

[@Blake.Cooper]

You have a beautiful garden too!! Glad to see you watch Laura. I feel like I have found my tribe!

[@jasminelouisefarrall]

Morning Everyone 🥰

[@carmenmarcinkiewicz7149]

Alyssa is so fortunate to have the two of you setting up such a lovely spot to grow things!! So happy for her!

[@stephanieg995]

The timing of this video is perfect. I have been procrastinating on ordering our drip irrigation supplies. It was a little overwhelming to know how many, of each piece, that I needed. This video was a huge help and I finally made my order. It only took me a year to decide and purchase everything.😂 thank you Laura and Aaron.

[@barbarajohnson1348]

You are so sweet to your sister doing all this work. God bless you far more abundantly then you ever imagined. I never thought you'd need so many parts.

[@judygray7718]

Instructive and helpful. Thanks for the attention to detail as I am a “visual” learner. Very excited to see phase 4 +! Loving this project for us “senior” gardeners it would be manageable. ❤ Thanks!

[@anitacox651]

This was so helpful and made adding a drip system seem so much more “doable”. I plan to make a list of items need and get it done!

[@rofleury2801]

Your family is SO LUCKY! Having family that not only enjoys gardening but sharing the joyof Transformation! Best to all of you… giving and receiving!!

[@gardeningonthewestforkwith8994]

Love how informative this video is and easy to follow. You two work great together . Little mess and made this process look simpler than I had imagined . Thanks lucky sister !!

[@crisa0390]

THIS is exactly what I needed to see. Running drip seemed so daunting, but you made it make sense, and easy to do. THANK YOU!

[@aleciafarquhar5189]

I keep intending to set up a drip system. You make it look so easy. I know it will make my life so much easier, and my plants happier and bigger. I have got to get it done. I spend hours watering! Thank you for the encouragement!

[@user-fm6gy1xv9z]

My husband and I have been developing our cottage garden few 3 years! When the Gardener's Supply Company catalog arrives in the mail I start dreaming! I would use the gift card to start building an enclosed raised garden area!

[@kebergify]

Incredibly helpful, you guys! I've been trying to work up the courage to do this for my raised beds and with our drought last year, I might just do it this year. Imagine me outside in my garden area with my laptop while your video is playing, showing me how to do this...LOL. I for sure will refer back!! Thank-you so much, Laura & Aaron!!!

[@cristinacraigmile9741]

This was incredibly timely as I started to add drip irrigation to my new little garden. Your videos have given me the confidence and information to get the job done. I’ve loved learning so much, succeeding and failing, at times, but always enjoying following y’all.

[@nadineseden1008]

I watched this over and over to help me set up my new irrigation system for my vegetable garden. So helpful! I love how it’s all coming together! I need to shop at Gardener’s Supply more.

[@staceyallard2692]

Ok, so I’ve been watching you for years and seen many, many of your videos about drip but this one was different.. something about showing the trenching I suspect. Tho whole thing was VERY informative & im grateful for it!! Thank you so much for all the detail! 🙏🏼😊♥️

[@treyb7053]

This is SO informative! I've been wanting to install drip at my sister's and my boyfriend's mom's house. This makes it seem much more attainable. Beautiful work from both of you. Thanks so much for all that you do!

[@lindacapps3460]

Thank you for this wonderful tutorial. Haven’t had a garden for 30 some years and at 75 years old decided it was time again. This will make my life and enjoyment so much nicer. The summer heat in southwestern Oklahoma makes it unbearable to even go out some days. This granny is going to sit in the window and watch her garden grow this year.

[@kellyanderson7271]

I would like to have the garden beds to grow food for my family. I've just turned 58 and I had to quit my job during covid to watch my grandchildren so their moms could work because they are essential workers. It would be fun to get my grandchildren involved with the whole process. Thank you for the videos Aaron and Laura! Bless you all

[@reneebarlow1077]

Just for safety purposes, the extension cord should be run through conduit. You never know who (kidz) could be digging in the yard

[@bkol5243]

Renee is right. You should never run an extension cord underground like that

[@KentQuickstad]

You ideally shouldn't be running permanent extension cords ever. Better to wire in a new outlet with underground direct burial wire or wire in conduit. Extension cords could generate heat in an enclosed space such as conduit.

[@jeansandhoodiegardengal2975]

This is really looking amazing! I’m still loving those copper capped beds!

[@staceyv8754]

This is SO incredibly helpful! Thank you so much for showing this project on a smaller scale like my own backyard. I’m so excited to run drip to all my beds hopefully this year ❤❤

[@user-yo6mc9er9q]

As I sit here with Laura on the TV giving the weekly update, I have Laura talking on my laptop so she's in stereo. This has been a great example for those of us with normal sized yards in neighborhoods. If I won the gift card, I would buy two of the raised beds with the copper caps - either two squares or two rectangles and either design in parallel or an L. Good luck to me.

[@leescungio8984]

This looks so beautiful! I have watched you lay drip to so many of your projects but this video relates more to my small space and the step by step is so helpful. I may tackle this project this weekend!

[@teresaobrien663]

Loving this project so much! Raised beds with drip all set look so tidy. My last garden was all in the ground & a ton of maintenance. I’ve been wanting to build out my backyard, but it seems overwhelming when I make the list of everything I need to do. Seeing it broken down in phases makes it seem more doable.

[@c0ldlight1]

It's so wonderful to see this garden come together. The close up of the drip installation was super informative!

[@Talula72]

This is going to be such an amazing space, for many years. What a blessing this will be to your sister-in-law and her family.

[@maryspreng9797]

It would be so fun if you did a video on adding up all the materials for beds, greenhouse, irrigation etc just to see what this project would cost the average person. I know that this is probably not realistic for a “Saturday” project for most, but it would be something fun to get an idea on how much it would cost because then people can take inspiration from it, or save up to do something similar :-) I love watching your inspirational projects and someday I will have a garden great as this!

[@karenlee844]

Thank you, thank you! I learn by watching and seeing and you guys are the best teachers! Just put in a new bed and now we understand how to run the drip!

[@sandywalheim4526]

The drip line transition from the faucet to the delivery line was a very helpful explanation. That’s where I have gone wrong in the past. Excellent instructions for setting up a new drip system correctly!!!

[@marygarrett5932]

Gardener's Supply has such an amazing array of products! My husband and I would like to get a drip system set up this year. As a visual learner, I really appreciate how you show us the process from start to finish along with maintenance pointers, as well. Thanks!

[@corinnevankannel2466]

Thank you! This was very helpful! I have been wanting to set a raised bed and some pots up on drip. It always feels so overwhelming but you have convinced me we can do this! Can all your materials be ordered and from where? Could you list all the parts you used please? You are both so kind and I love watching every day ❤

[@aimeesgardens]

Who else wants Laura for a sister in law???? Omg you guys are amazing!!! I can't imagine how happy Aaron's sister is right now!!!

[@sherrywhitaker3369]

Aaron, I’m sure that this is a dream come true for your sister!!! What a beautiful labor of love💖💖💖💖💖💖

[@terryparrishvideos]

So glad you’re covering this! Reading about the process can be confusing. Thank you so much for doing this video!

[@katiemongue8535]

I love the new bamboo support collection at Gardener’s Supply. This project is a great example of a small scale garden and I appreciate the drip irrigation tutorial. Thanks Laura and Aaron!

[@katiec9895]

I was able to set up all of my drip tube by watching your multiple videos on how to do this! The way you teach it has been invaluable for me! Thank you!

[@anns1269]

I built my raised bed garden area thanks to your inspiration. We just got in the supplies for drip irrigation and plan on installing it soon. Thank you both for sharing your process with us. This will be a game-changer and my plants already thank you!

[@robertbaker9775]

Wow, what a SUPER IMPRESSIVE job you did, Laura and Aaron!! 👏👏👏 You two really are THE best! Linda

[@kelsiehatlevig]

I’m a visual learner too. This was exactly what I needed to see for it all to make sense! Thank you!!

[@barbaraberglund5813]

Thank you, Laura and Aaron. My husband has been wanting to put drip irrigation on our raised beds, and this video is so informative and helpful. Love all you guys do.

[@jeannequick9551]

I am so happy you have a Drip Supply list. Last year I was thinking about installing some drip irrigation in a few areas in my garden and I got overwhelmed with all the products available. Seeing your list just made it so much easier to get the things I will need. Thanks a ton.

[@ruthnoronha8206]

Alleluia yes finally. I wanted you to show us what a set up would look like if it was from any ordinary city garden. Simple and straightforward . Thank you

[@joycemeinhardt425]

Oh my goodness, THANK YOU!! Installed raised beds last year and now it’s time to set up the drip system! This video will be SO helpful with such great step by step info on supplies and the process! 🎉

[@hjcarpentier6072]

Finally after how many years of us asking, begging for a drip tubing video! Yay! and Thankyou! I've wasted so much money doing hit and miss on my drip tubing. Even my handyman couldn't get it done without wrong parts here and there. It definitely takes an experienced person to do it the right way..

[@stickermigtigger]

Installed 3/4" x 100' garden hose with a 7/64 hole drilled every 5' along a row of 18 blackberry plants. We have ~60psi service pressure. I left it on overnight (not intentionally) a couple of times in March and watered them a good bit off and on throughout the month. My water bill for March was FIVE times normal; 32,000 gallons. Had them check the meter and got a daily use chart. Not a water company problem. My hose at that pressure expels ~600 gallon per hour through 18 7/64" holes. These better be the best damn blackberries EVER! 🙂

[@storybookfarmeasttexas9971]

Love love love this video!! I WANT to do drip, but never have and currently drag hoses, sprinklers, etc. This makes it seem so simple to do! Thanks, Laura & Aaron (and Alyssa!)!!😊

[@emilydeleon1011]

I am also a visual person and your videos have helped me install drip in my raised bed garden! The "on and off" feature on the drip is so nice! I'm going to upgrade my set up this season!

[@breannasaffron1186]

THANK YOU!!! This was exactly what I needed. I've always hand-watered but now we have more than 4 beds to take care of so this step by step was SOOOO helpful!

[@melissagelner5844]

What a wonderful gift for Aarons sister! Sweet success when ALL of the drip lines were working…Congrats!

[@toniahedrick141]

Looks AMAZING so far! Your sister-in-law is very blessed to have such a sweet,kind and loving sister like you.. thanks for bringing us alone in these amazing videos that you and Aaron and your family make... If I won the $500 gift card from gardeners supply I would definitely love to get some obelisk or towards a greenhouse.. Thanks gardeners supply for offering this

[@WatermelonLane]

Seeing raised beds in a small space is really helpful, and it looks gorgeous! Thank you for the tutorial on this type of drip system. You explain all the steps and needed products so well!

[@The.Challenged.Gardener]

Wow!! You guys kicked butt on this project, what an amazing gift this will be for her through out the years .. I can't wait to see how she sets up the greenhouse🌿🌷

[@maine9319]

Thanks for mentioning all the bits and pieces for the whole set up. And not skipping on how you installed the whole project. Very helpful and easy to follow. God bless you all.

[@sandrablack2947]

This was a very helpful video. I’m sure the area will look even more beautiful once you are done. Thank you Laura and Aaron for sharing.

[@mistygeller3193]

You are so helpful!! I only found you maybe a few months ago, and now that I have I am constantly referring back to different projects that you have done to help navigate through my own! Thank you so very much! I just started thinking about putting in some raised beds, did a quick KZbin search and got a playlist of all of your information! Love it!!

[@melindavillasenor7996]

Thanks for showing us how install drip system again! It really helps that you’re in a “smaller” garden. Helps me picture how to do it at my house! I love it when you do projects at peoples homes!! Thank you for the inspiration you provide me!!

[@jfrederick1222]

We installed drip for the first time following your instructions and product recommendations. Thank you so much. ❤

[@praisingirl]

I just learned how to efficiently dig a shallow trench thru my grass! What amazing teamwork. I’m showing this to my husband. We are retired and I struggle with too much digging and bending over. Thanks for passing on your tips to help us fine tune our time in the yard so we can enjoy more time enjoying it. 😊

[@megankim4020]

I’m so glad you showed the irrigation. My beds are coming today, and I was worried about it. You explanation broken down to parts and pieces locked it in for me. Thank you!

[@lorismith5369]

I am visual, too! Thank you for showing us the steps as you talk us through the process! 😊

[@kaeleyjust3991]

I love everything about this raised garden area. I have plans to create my own this year and work on my front court yard area. I'm getting so many great ideas!!! Thank you!!!

[@mindyrutkowski3124]

Soooo sweet of you guys to do this for her!!! ❤ Lots of work but so nice to have!!

[@rainydaysunnylife5718]

I've been binge watching your videos since last week when your new land video from 3 years ago popped up in my suggesteds. YOU and AARON are inspiring. Your videos are excellent, very well edited, your instruction and commentary is thorough, invaluable. This is one of my favorite channels now. THANK YOU for sharing and teaching. Oh and your gardens and property are to die for....just marvelous. Keep up the good work.

[@jamiedearing4151]

Thank you Laura for this video! Thanks to you I have set up three drip lines because of your great instructions! What a blessing!

[@prettyroads]

Thank you for showing how to connect everything to the faucet, Laura. I see now where i was going wrong and why i was having leaks! In going to follow your hookup system this year.

[@thenieuwcrew]

Loving your videos, Laura! Today working on my garden I was telling myself to be like you, and get one thing done at a time. It's so easy for me to jump from one thing to another and then try to complete everything super fast when I'm actually out of time. 😅 It made me smile to see you go to dig the trench for the drip line, but then weed and clean up the day lillies quick first. 😁

[@donnalovintexas8760]

Thank you for showing us how to connect drip to an outdoor faucet. This is really helpful. Have a Blessed week.

[@DanceonthePedals]

Thank you for this video! It is so clearly laid out. I set up my drip system two years ago by myself for some window boxes , then my husband and I had fun adding more to the front yard landscape. I am going to change a few things after watching. Well done.

[@katherinethweatt4167]

This is just such a great setup! Love everything you're doing for SIL!

[@kerryschultz7116]

I commented on the water last video. I feel so much better now 🤣!! I agree the drip system is a must. I watered by hand for a while in my new place and at first it’s kinda fun but quickly becomes a chore. First week away from home motivated me to get drip going and it’s SOOOO worth the effort. Looks great!! Can’t wait to see what she grows now.

[@paulataddeo3866]

Thankful that you shared how to set up the watering system! So helpful to have a video, especially for a visual learner like myself!

[@carlas872]

Thank you Laura and Aaron! I plan on running drip to my containers this year and this video will really come in handy for the faucet connections. I had no idea there was that much involved!

[@mamaof4bbs]

THANK YOU for this!! I've been searching for a drip irrigation tutorial for beginners, explained in this exact detail and finally found it. Perfect explanation for me!

[@pat9604]

I was so excited to see this piece of the project. We will be installing raised beds in an area where we will access the hose bib for water. It is about 15 feet away, and we will go under gravel and landscape cloth. Seeing all the couplings and the timer gives us a big heads up of what we need! Thank you, Laura and Aaron. You have saved us so much thinking and planning. Now we can concentrate more on the asthetics.😊

[@zorycalcabentexasrealtor9277]

Oh my goodness, such an exciting project. This gives me so much inspiration, I have a garden similar to your sister-in-law’s. Can’t wait to see it all at the end.

[@BarbaraChapmanFrenchEthereal]

Thank you, thank you, thank you for showing exactly how to put together a drip system using garden hoses!!! I want to get this done for summer so I don't have to hand water so much this season. Thank you for so many wonderful gardening tips over the years!!

[@davefeyler3184]

Loved watching the process you did for the drip system. You definitely inspired me to try this at our house. I love that you provided the parts you used and why. I feel like I can do this at our house. My husband installed raised beds last year and I have been a little overwhelmed at the thought of putting in a drip system but feel like I can do this after seeing your video. Thank you!

[@brendajenkins249]

This is a great video of how to installed a irrigation system. I’m going to show my gardener because it’s so hard to explain so he can seefor himself what he needs and how to install it. Thanks, Laura and Aaron great job.🌺

[@davidgraham8919]

Just wanted to reach out and thank you for all the excellent videos. My gardening results have been getting steadily better year after year and much of that has to do with great information I find in your videos. Thanks so much for all your hard work!

[@dtruscott579]

The space is looking great! She has got to be so excited! Thank you for sharing this process.

[@rhondamason5850]

Thank you for this! Just what I need to do to my raised beds! Such good timing too. I so appreciate all you both do!

[@Gardening_is_Therapy]

Excellent video Laura and Aaron with step by step instruction and fantastic camera work!! I feel equipped to try this in my garden! THANK YOU!! ❤

[@jayesbeautifulchaos2244]

I absolutely love this! I’ve got a little sand box area not being used anymore that I’m wanting to out a small she-shed or greenhouse on. This gives me so much hope!
