Looks crazy hot there! It’s been hot here too...for a change lol. What a system to water these flowers! Thank goodness cause I can’t imagine what it took to do it in the old days. Thanks Ed! Stay cool brother!

Hello from Oklahoma Ed, I really enjoy your video and am learning a lot. We are doing mums for the first time this year. Took your advice on everything but I’m wondering about growing them in the greenhouse. I thought they needed full sun? Also, on another video you recommended a water absorber granule. What brand do you use? Thank you so much. Blessings to you and your family and nursery!

Love that watering system. We want to do something like that for our garden. 👍

[@prattsgreenhousefarm9473]

Darrell you won't be disappointed! It has made life bearable for me. Thanks for watching it's much appreciated.

Sweating my tail off and I come inside for some A.C. and what I see... you working hard in the heat... Stay hydrated!!! God Bless.

[@prattsgreenhousefarm9473]

It's not by choice buddy. Gotta do what we gotta do. Hope you had some good luck with the groundhogs.

You are not kidding it is hot. Thought I was gonna melt out there yesterday trying to get some new bale racks built. Today we will break over 100 degrees. Summer is here my friend! Love that watering system ya got there! I know that is a life saver from not having to hand watering anymore. Great job done Sir. Hope you had a Happy Fathers Day and have a great week!

[@prattsgreenhousefarm9473]

Thank you CB you try to stay cool if ya can. Isn't this funny how quickly we go from too cold to too hot. Have a good one!

Every time you add a 90 deg el you reduce water flow pressure by 25 percent. With flexible tubing you can just add a wide bend and have very little pressure drop. On a 3/4 inch line it only adds about a foot of tubing to the length of the line.

Good info.

Great job again, really interesting,thanks from across the pond

[@prattsgreenhousefarm9473]

Thank you I'm happy you enjoyed. Thanks for your comment.

[@andystennesseelife7016]

It's been hot here to Mr. Pratt, we've been pushing 100 some days. Those drip lines do look good tho!

[@prattsgreenhousefarm9473]

Andy I bet you are about to cook down there. It ain't been long since I was complaining about that cold April. Never happy😁

[@FensterfarmGreenhouse]

Cool Stuff Ed. I know your back was aching after all that! Take care buddy! Chuck

[@prattsgreenhousefarm9473]

Ha! The back and hips are a bit tender. Thanks Chuck!

[@jeannereckmann2464]

What are the gallons per hour admitted? Thank you.

[@loganprince2557]

Question. We are new greenhouse. Use the same system and inject on every watering. The beginning of our runs looks great and big the ends are small and like it's not getting any fertility what am I doing wrong?

[@farmhouseonfifteenth]

What gph emitter are you using?

[@brandonsettgast5177]

Sorry about the extreme heat, it latched on somewhere around Tucson. I'll try to find some cooler temps to send your wayLOL. 101 here in Kansas!

[@prattsgreenhousefarm9473]

ups kc 101 sounds rough. I'm afraid we are gonna get close to that today here. We have a heat advisory on here whatever that means. Have a good one and keep on truckin buddy. Oh yea if you come across some cool weather go ahead and bring it to Rankins creek.

[@stropefarmsllc7630]

Mr Pratt I’m setting my first mum patch up tomorrow if you don’t mind me asking how long should I water or tell if there to wet or not wet enough

[@prattsgreenhousefarm9473]

When I water them I water until the water runs out the bottom of the pot. That usually takes about 20 minutes with this system. But it’s important to let them dry down between waterings.

[@stropefarmsllc7630]

Pratts Greenhouse thanks so much

[@prattsgreenhousefarm9473]

Strope farms llc I will mention that I always hand water in the first time. Seems to do a more uniform job to start things off.
