We FAILED the First Time... Garden Irrigation in Raised Beds

[@debbiebarnes2723]

Love that you show trial and error for us. That’s my life. 😊

[@TennValleyGal]

I totally understood the Purr Talking at the end of the video. It's been dry here too. God bless the gardeners of the world.

[@joellenbroetzmann9053]

Have you thought about having some extra water stored that would gravity water your beds in case of a power failure? And possibly a way to have gravity fed emergency water for your home needs too? Maybe you could build a little water tower by both the house and the garden.

[@taylorgontkovic4543]

Gardens looks so good... The plants will thank you, later..Summer I hear is going to be hotter than usual... And your harvest will bountiful.. Adore the BLOOPERS..😉😂🤣.🍅🥔🥕🥒♥️🥀

Great video!! Thanks for sharing how you installed drip irrigation in your garden, even showing your mistakes. It makes for a great video..I really enjoy the bloopers at the end..

[@janetkoball44]

You both handled those mistakes like true farmers. No tears just change it up. Can't wait for the first picking of whatever. Thanks for sharing all this with us. Hi boys.

[@Mrs.LadeyBug]

Lol… farmers cry too ya know. :)

[@Peachy08]

Been down this road twice. Finally said to heck with and ripped it all out and went back to watering by hand. It's very therapeutic anyways😏

[@amma3536]

Finally, huh? Take care and be blessed.😊

[@mattsara2802]

Sam all I do at the end of the pipe is cut a inch or a inch and a half off then fold it 2 times and slid the 1” or 1 1/2” I’ve the fold and bing go bam bo.

[@JettaTDI2005]

Nice.. work and yeap its a sort of is easy and also hard to setup the drip but the veggies will love it. We have our garden line setup with some pots and raised beds all setup a zone so that the BHive sprinkler takes care of that

Your outtakes give us just a little taste of how much work goes into making a video to entertain and inform your subs. Thanks Guys!! You are appreciated!

[@cliff5240]

About 3 years ago I went with the DIG system. I ran the 1/2 tubing into all of my beds and plugged the 1/4 emitters into the 1/2 tubing and terminated them. I created 3 zones for my beds and one for my fruit trees and hooked up a four port timer (I am guessing this is what you are doing in your next video). I have not watered my garden in 3 years. Last year I ran the same thing to all of my wife's flowers and we have not had to water them either. We just fertilize and watch them grow :)

[@beckyisabell4324]

Love the set up.

[@denisewilson8367]

I'm cheap, LOL , but I want to see the water amounts that go in my garden. So I just set up a main line that I don't have to move to mow and put overhead sprinklers up in different sections at a time. The plants that like lots of water I group together and the ones who like a little water in another area. I can keep better tabs on the water and don't have to worry about clogged emitters and expensive parts.

[@carolyncarlson3825]

I'm glad you got it all to work....hugs

[@TinaMarieGregory]

Angela got new glasses ! I love them ! God bless you all !

[@bigtom3422]

Plants like the irrigation better early in the morning or over night, It's not good for the plants to water in direct sunlight

[@sam-and-angela]

Thanks for the tip!

[@watahyahknow]

could double up on the drip tape and stagger the holes in them should give out water in more places , if the straight tube doesnt work run a loop around every plant when i made watering systems i made a t on the feedline and atached the start and the end of the driptube to it , that way if theres a clog halfway down the line it still feeds from the other end and it lets the water go to the end of the line faster even when automating the watering system keep an eye on it and stick a finger in the soil to test the moistness at several places , keep an eye on the plants too as they know perfectly well when there no water for them and show you their displeasure by drooping or turning brown if you dont take the first hint

[@ronnyrice697]

I want to do that too but I haven’t convinced myself that I can.

[@wadetyler5056]

Our water is so hard you have to replace emitters every couple of years, they clog up from the calcium.

[@ericjohnson1008]

I really need to get a system set up for my garden.

[@jimsavage7081]

Pretty cool 😎 you now have some very happy happy plants good job 👍 💪🏻👊🏻

[@charlene5461]

Lol! I so enjoy the bloopers!! And learn so much from all y'all's videos!! Thanks for sharing! Have a happy and blessed weekend!💖🤗💖

[@vickyrupe8999]

Well it took some time, but you finally got it going. Awesome job🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙

[@bigtom3422]

If you are using drip tape you can buy additional emitters and place them in the pipe where you want them

[@jomac2913]

That was a great instructional video of what not to do and what actually does works best. Thank you!

[@marlaschaefer9245]

You guys have patience that's for sure. I tried soaker hoses on ground years ago, This should make watering all those raised beds alot easier. Nice to see the detail of assembly. Nice cat!

[@denisemacdonald2062]

I feel you pain with the drip system. I’m constantly tweaking mine. I was working on mine all last weekend and I still have some changes I want to do…it never ends 😂

[@donna1018]

Love watching your channel and very happy to see your brothers channel is back!!

[@ramman5784]

The only thing I would have done differently would be to bury those lines on the ground, even just a couple of inches. I would trip on every one of them

[@elainebuchka6533]

Awesome Job even if it required extra work & some different things. Good job!! LOVE THE KITTY!!

[@Andbygrace7024]

Cleverly done....I'm learning.....

[@Lantanana]

My goodness, you poor guys had a lot of issues to clear up for this project!

[@thomasfreeman7770]

One more thing you need to do. Please protect your family’s drinking water supply. Install a back flow prevention device. All states require one where a irrigation system hooks up to a drinking water system.. If the water water source pressure falls it could create a negative pressure situation and draw water back into your drinking water. An atmospheric vacuum breaker can be used if there is no isolation valve down stream of the breaker. If there’s an isolation downstream then a pressure vacuum breaker must be installed.

[@charlene5461]

@thomasfreeman7770 this sounds so scientific and complicated but at the same time, makes sense. Thanks for sharing.

[@thomasfreeman7770]

@@charlene5461 really not complicated at all. It is a simple device that won’t allow backwards flow of water should the pressure fail on the water supply. Instead of letting the water run backwards and possibly causing contamination of the drinking water with dirt and or chemicals that may be used in the garden. It opens a vent to allow reversing water to fall to the ground.

[@lauragladden4396]

Y’all make the best videos

[@Lisa.Carroll]

Love your channel.

[@kathleengray7681]

Beware of mineral buildup on your watering system with the small water lines. I delt with that in Texas years ago and went with larger lines to correct the problem.

[@sam-and-angela]

Thanks for the heads up!

[@jackie6582]

Great video👍🙋‍♀️🌻🙏

[@irili100]

Hi Sam and Angela, will the raised beds always have seedlings/plants? The reason for the question I saw was that you did not put a faucet at the entrance to each bed to allow the faucet to be closed when the bed is empty.

[@Spence321]

Not to Kibitz, but Please talk about Back Flow Preventers and explain why you did not need one in this situation. Thanks from South Carolina

[@charlene5461]

This is the second time i've saw this in comments and never heard of it. I'm curious🤔

[@darleneclark6098]

Sure beats watering by hand. We're managing right now, but we've definitely got to get a trench and water spigot put up by the garden. Then we can install the drip irrigation we bought. Gotta get the rest of the plants in first lol

[@armidaperez5360]

You make it look so easy.

[@jerrystout3032]

Great Job guys!!!😇

[@mariowickel456]

I tried a similar irrigation system by rainbird , didn't work for our garden at church. I bought different stuff from Hoss products😊

[@sam-and-angela]

That’s exactly where we bought our irrigation parts from! They have great prices. 😁

[@melindaivey4772]

I have used drip tape and pipe over the years and they both work well. I know that you have already changed everything out and spent the money but you could have kept the drip tape and just go in every 6 inches and put a hole. It can be done. Anyway things look good and enjoy you guys

[@Hosty_Tim]

I'm looking forward to how the raised beds produce this year! Good luck!

[@MichaelSmith-jv7cx]

Enjoyed the video. I was wondering if you steel had the Earthquake tiller? I was looking at one and watched the video y’all put one together, and used.

[@sam-and-angela]

We do! Still works and starts up very easily!

[@chrismorgan6898]

Now that you have the raised beds done, what about your fruit trees?

[@garryteamcashoaustralia9538]

I am not a gardener but can I ask. Are you able to turn off each bed so those that need more water can while not over watering the others. Or are they one on all on.

[@sam-and-angela]

We can add in valves quite easily. There are ones for the large black pipe and the small tubing.

[@brosselot1]

Awesome

[@Hollybank5]

Well , THAT was labor intensive 😮…. But after a fix here and there - it works 🎉❤ !!! I’m guessing the new gizmo is timer for the irrigation…. ???

[@ivandalisay7609]

Instead of using an open flame to soften the tubing, another option is very hot water - no risk of melting the tubing.

Sam, do you make custom acrylic tags? I'm part of a Hosta group and they are always looking for plant tags that will last. I thought if you do make them, I could send them your way and see if anyone might order. Garden beds look so good.

[@sam-and-angela]

@@sam-and-angela Yes I think that's the right style but is there a link I can send to them in the group? The names aren't going to match what you have. So they would want to tell you what to put on each tag. I hope that makes since lol. Just let me know, thanks!

[@sandramarshall7712]

Love this video. Some great ideas. Thanks.

[@wendyburston3132]

I'm seriously considering drip tape, but we also try to rely on rain water. So if we could switch between a barrel and motor to tap water when necessary that could work for us.

[@lindamangoldbooth7789]

I'm not a gardener but curious, if you have yellow leaves from forgetting to water one day, how could a drip irrigation possibly supply enough water to keep the plants alive in an extremely hot environment planted in the sun?

Angela tried that on one section, we had a mini jet of water. The holes are metered to only allow a calibrated about of water to drip out.
