Thanks for making a video a person can understand!

[@kriistiina111590]

This is the first video that really broke it down for me to understand. It seemed so hard but you made it so simplr

[@natashaslipscomb9355]

Thank you for sharing and making this look like even I could set this up. LOL GREAT JOB!!!!

[@KreatyveGardenista]

Ur welcome! 😉💚💚

[@txLALA]

Very straightforward! Glad there’s a manual option for those sweltering hot days. Thanks! 👍🏾😃

[@kathywajer9424]

From a woman to woman… I’m a single homeowner and do it yourselfer… THANK YOU!!!! The video was clear and concise…. So much easier to understand than a few others I watched. Can’t wait to turn on my self installed drip system also! Girl Power!! 😂

[@KreatyveGardenista]

Glad it helped! You are so welcome!!🙌🏾

[@NatalieEshelman-nl2xk]

I feel like this is such an obvious question but for this to work I need to turn on the water at the spigot and leave it on right? The timer will turn it on and off?

[@KreatyveGardenista]

Yes that is correct! Leave your spigot on👍🏾

[@indy_J]

Ugh, I'm nervous about that part. I've never used this before. So, I assume that the timer uses pressure some kind of way to keep the water from actually staying on until it's time to run?

[@brad4527]

what if don't here the click after you set it? The first time i set it up i heard a click sound. Did i do something wrong? i followed your video step-by-step . Thank you Brad.

[@speridotdean9190]

Best video with instructions for this product. I just had my yard seeded and was told to water using a timer. Thanks so much

[@KreatyveGardenista]

You're welcome! 😉

[@ELFAMVLOGS]

As woman I give you lots of credits for doing all what you’re doing. This video helped me & saved it for future reference.

[@RandomReggie007]

Wow you raked with no gloves on respect LOL I just can't

[@Plant_Mama]

You did such a great job setting this up! I was cheering too when it worked hahah 👏👏👏 Sharing with my mom who actually has an outdoor garden and can learn so much from this!

[@KreatyveGardenista]

Lol thanks so much! 🤗💚💚

@@KreatyveGardenista if i dont have batteries will the water not run ??

[@introvertinspired1308]

Jess, around the 5 min mark, when you turn on the water, I see you have the same issue I have, which is a small drip from the timer before the water gets to the irrigation hose. I understand how to set it all up (thanks for your easy how-to tips!), but I have never been able to use a timer because if I try to leave the water valve on, there is always a drip! It's never water-tight, so I always resort to ditching the timer and just manually turning the water on each day. I would LOVE to have the system water at 5am when it's coolest, and they say evaporation is at its lowest, but I cannot deal with the idea of leaving the water faucet on while it's drip, drip, dripping out of the timer connection constantly. If you come up with a way to fix that problem, please do show us! I'm DYING to have drip running where I can set the timer and not worry about it. Thanks for your informative videos.

[@KreatyveGardenista]

Hi! That leak is actually coming from my faucet not the timer connection. I just need to fix my faucets on BOTH sides of my house actually.. Just havn't gotten around to them yet but they are on my to-do list lol! Have u tried changing out ur washers?

[@introvertinspired1308]

@@KreatyveGardenista Oh! Ok. No, I haven't changed out the washers... I'm not terribly handy. I did have the hose bib replaced on the other side of the house, so that could be it too. It just seems like I can never have a non-leaky faucet! Once those leaks are fixed, you have to just leave the water faucet on all the time for the watering to be automatic, right? Weirds me out to think about leaving that valve open, but I guess if everything is leak-free then it'll be fine. Thanks for your help! I'm enjoying watching your garden take shape. I'm doing something similar, just a little every day. It feels slow-going with results, but I guess gardening teaches us patience! Thanks again -Leslie

[@KreatyveGardenista]

@@introvertinspired1308 If ur leak isn't coming from ur faucet then I would start there.. U can pick up washers for only a few cents & it's a super easy inexpensive fix! Usually a leak comes from the attachments not reaching the washer inside the hose connection. Also, yes the faucet & valves must remain on to run automatically but shouldn't be an issue at all with no leaks! The timer is good at only opening up the water flow when scheduled to run. Hope this helps & thanks so much for watching! And yes I agree totally!! I have to keep reminding myself to slow down gardening is never ending & I can't complete it all at once! Happy gardening!🤗💚💚

[@blackhoney7617]

Hi, use white plumbers tape to seal the connection

[@introvertinspired1308]

@@KreatyveGardenista Got it, thank you so much!

[@nathanhorn8003]

Do these timers and/or splitters affect the water pressure?

[@PeterHall-ip6ho]

How do you set that system up to the timer

[@mfm1981]

Wow very well explained. You made my life so simple can't wait to install drip system in my backyard. Thank you 🙂

[@KreatyveGardenista]

Ur welcome! Happy irrigating 😁💚

[@Shivsadventure]

Great video. I have an issue, even after changing the battery, there is no display. What could be the reason.

[@KreatyveGardenista]

You may want to reach out to the manufacturer of your timer for that issue.

[@Ms_shael]

You make things so approachable! Definitely taking notes and saving to my new home playlist! 😀 Thank you!

[@KreatyveGardenista]

You're welcome! I try to make things as simple as possible bc that's the way I like to learn😉

[@pamleach57]

Where is the hose repair video??

[@sek4110]

Why is it leaking?

[@chavalee2146]

Can you put a timer on the drip

[@khinhnin6831]

How to stop leak from faucet connected to irrigation timer please?

[@KreatyveGardenista]

You may need to replace the rubber washer

[@myco8591]

Excellent work ❤👍

[@maxinesealey8927]

Ty so much for this video. It came right on time. ❤

[@KreatyveGardenista]

You are so welcome 😁

[@Sweettomatovine]

Great job

[@brandonali7684]

Hi does this need a water pump for pressure or can it be used without a pump?

[@KreatyveGardenista]

Hi there! I do not have a water pump on my drop systems

[@terryfuller5816]

Easy to follow. Easy style of delivery. Thanks!

[@KreatyveGardenista]

You're welcome! Hope this helps!!😉

[@tiffany6818]

Thanks!

[@marlonlaguna6832]

I watch other videos it doesn't help me.your video show me the right way to do,thank you I appreciate you help.

[@buttercup7900]

What are we doing wrong. Set it to come on at 7am for 10 mins then 12 hours later i.e. 7pm. It comes on at 7am but not 7pm?

[@shastastan1935]

I'm already setup, but congratulations on your informative excellent video. I have this orbit valve for one section and also their 6 station controller. For the Orbit, I remove the batteries and valve and store it for the winter. I put in new batteries and reconnect it in the spring. :)

[@GinaCriv]

Great job, Jess, I feel like a proud mama toward you. I love your independence and willingness to do these types of jobs for yourself. I was wondering, do you not have an irrigation system that could water all the beds; that's what I do, making sure the sprinklers hit all the beds. Just curious. Thanks, Gina.

[@RandomReggie007]

quick question would you be able to connect that to a double hose Y male adapter? one one side like you had in the beginning ?

[@remohor]

Thank you! I didn't realize how simple it is to program the device. Appreciate that you took your time to demonstrate it. Im getting more knowledgeable and more ready to install my own system.

[@albinajoseph3554]

Yes thanks so very much for the step by step instructions you made this video looks so easy... it very much appreciated, keep up the good work ❤️

[@carlosalfaro9321]

Buen video, me ayudo mucho ahora puedo optimizar el riego en mi terreno, saludos desde Chile :)

[@patrina7356]

I didn't know I needed a time until right now! You set it up so easy. I'm definitely getting at least one to water my backyard.

[@M.A.TvTube]

Great Content 👍, Keep on with the DIY videos.

[@gabrielgarza506]

Great video very Informative!

[@carolynimboden3382]

The absolute best video anywhere on setting up different configurations of components for drip irrigation. It took me a lot of time and several errors to figure out how to do this. There is not a HD within 150 miles of my house that carries irrigation parts. I was envious of you selection at HD. Thanks again. I will save this post to share every time someone asks me how to run drip.

[@KreatyveGardenista]

Thank u! U can order all of these parts online from home depot as well! I also linked them on Amazon.. Or you can find them at most hardware stores like Ace Hardware & Tractor Supply or their website for anyone else that may have ur same issue with HD not close or in stock😉💚💚

[@tru_passion2424]

That time look very easy

[@mylynnj3792]

Great video! It definitely gave me the confidence to use drip tubes in my own garden.

[@KreatyveGardenista]

Thank u! And yes go for it!! U & ur plants will be so happy u did😉💚💚💚

[@chrystalsabin4091]

Good information.

[@twistysunshine]

I bet this is gonna save you a lot of stress in the future

[@KreatyveGardenista]

I'm praying it will! Once I fix my leaky faucets on both sides of my house I think I'll be good! 👍🏾😀

[@sherrylevine5228]

What’s the name off the machine you was using in the yard?

[@KreatyveGardenista]

It's a garden tiller😉

[@albinajoseph3554]

Thank much

[@asherahsantos884]

Hi! Will it be on timer too?

[@KreatyveGardenista]

Eventually I'll get a timer for this side too, but for now I'll manually turn it on

[@blackhoney7617]

Awesome video
