WANT TO SAVE TIME WATERING - install a soaker hose!

One of the major tasks throughout the growing season is to ensure your plants are regularly watered so today - with a little bit of patience and a lot of luck - I install a soaker hose in the poly tunnel to take care of it for me!
Come and see how I get on in my organic, no dig garden in the heart of the U.K.

I was so chuffed for you i clapped, i seriously need water help im on a hosepipe ban, fab vlog Jane 🥰

[@JanesGrowingGarden]

We are seriously increasing our water collection this year by adding as many collection barrels as we can - and all you need to do is place the outlet a little higher and you've got gravity feed! Good luck!

😂😂 wonky arch or what Jane. Yep as we speak I’m watering and on timer 🤦🏼‍♀️ I’m the timer I run out and switch over the hose. Have a fab week, Ali 🌞🇨🇦

[@JanesGrowingGarden]

I knew someone would notice that - it'll soon straighten up! Yes I'm the timer too at the moment - 'time' to water the garden! Thanks Ali.

[@KarenBowers4]

Fabulous job Jane. Loved this video!

[@JanesGrowingGarden]

Thanks Karen - glad you enjoyed it!

[@rachelcatchpole]

Great job

[@JanesGrowingGarden]

Thanks Rachel - glad it worked!

[@TheLakeEffectGardener]

Great vid, Jane!! Those soakers are definitely a game changer! Watering is my least favorite garden job! 😂 hope you’re well!! Xx

[@JanesGrowingGarden]

I don't know why we haven't thought of it before - it'll really come into it's own once the tomatoes are in. Thanks Jim x

[@triplegoddesssoapery]

That snap and grow soaker hose and all the various attachments are emy favourite thing about my garden. I have them through all my raised vegetable beds, and going to run some.more too! They're so easy and efficient! ❤

[@JanesGrowingGarden]

Yes I can imagine us putting in quite a few more in the future - they're great! Thank you.

[@marilynb.4482]

Jane you are goimg to love it! I live in the high desert of the US, SW and this is how I water. I have 5 huge zones. Each zone has a quick connect (male) and the water hose has a female connect so that I can quickly move my water hose, connect and walk away until that zone is watered. What a game changer for me. You are going to love your soaker hose!

[@JanesGrowingGarden]

Oh my goodness - yours sounds super efficient! Yes we're hoping to extend it to different areas in the future so it's good to hear it's 'doable'. Thanks Marilyn.

Thank you!

[@yarnybart5911]

'That goes on there' without showing what that is is really helpful...

[@JanesGrowingGarden]

Glad you found it useful!

[@colleenstinton-czuprynski9894]

That was great. Impressive. I struggle with that stuff but I’ve got my system ready to install so here’s hoping.

[@JanesGrowingGarden]

Honestly it's going to make such a difference over the coming months - good luck with yours!

[@robinmiller1783]

I admit it I was the screen shouter….”no, not the sewing scissors”!

[@JanesGrowingGarden]

Ha ha - I'd have been the same! Thanks Robin.

[@jennyhayler7553]

Me too !!

[@GardenofEmma]

Great Video Jane. Would love a soaker hose but no room for ibc tank or any mains. Great set up ❤

[@JanesGrowingGarden]

Thanks Emma - I'd love your irrigation system as well!

[@GardenofEmma]

@@JanesGrowingGardenI love the greenhouse irrigation. It really has been a game changer.
