I love drip irrigation! It is easy to install and can easily be put on a timer. The best part is water goes only to the plants you want to water!

Have your plants on a higher level, and then the water will flow in the lower level. Always plant Mary Golds in your rows of plants also, for this will keep away mice, and rats, and unwanted animals. Check your plants daily, to remove ripen plants. You don't want them to over ripe., then you will loose them. Best wishes. J.

Sprinkler system and drip irrigation on a programmable timer system. I do have several sections that need to be hand watered, but for me, not a big deal.
