Description
Soaker Hose offers the perfect delivery of water to plants: slowly, steady release at the soil line. This ensures that water is not wasted. The slow release allows the soil around plant roots to gradually absorb the water. And the proximity of the hose to soil means that very little if any is lost to evaporation.Soaker hose is the grandfather of the drip irrigation system. When you attach a soaker to a regular hose and turn on the water supply, water seeps in sweat-like beads from the hose along its entire length. Soaker hose can help us conserve water and at the same time enjoy beautiful flower gardens, trees as well as great tasting home-grown fruits and vegetables. Also used in raised planters, median strips, foundation stabilization, hanging planters and more.
Installing the hose system in your garden is simple enough for just about anyone to do. An underground "just under the mulch" soaker system is the most effective, because you don’t lose any water to evaporation, and you can soak the roots of plants at a deeper level. Incorporate a soaker hose system into your garden design before planting.
An aboveground soaker system is much easier to install for an existing garden, and the hoses can easily be moved whenever necessary. This type of soaker system is still extremely efficient and effective. You simply place the hose along the ground around the base of your plants. If the hose crosses an area of the garden which doesn’t require watering, you simply connect a section of regular garden hose or the appropriate size drip irrigation tubing.
