A wide range of system componentsGARDENA drip irrigationMicro-Drip-System allows for its unlimited expansion. They can be easily connected with each other using the Quick & Easy technique, in which both assembly and disassembly are child&39;s play. The Micro-Drip-System includes elements such as: "
- base unit- pressure reduction and water filtering
- end dripper- watering single plants and long rows of plants, e.g. potted plants, hedges
- row dripper- irrigation of plants growing in rows, e.g. in boxes on the terrace
- sprinkling nozzles- watering surfaces of various sizes, e.g. vegetable gardens, flower gardens
- sprinkler- watering flower beds
In rectangular gardens with low vegetation, the adjustable sprinkler Vario 50 works perfectly well. If you need to water tall plants, it can be raised with one or two extension pipes. Thanks to this solution, we will be able to irrigate plants up to 40 cm high.
Where GARDENA Drip Irrigation can be used
Various combinations and numerous variants of the selection of system components make it widely applicable. Shrubs or flowers, single or in rows, on large surfaces or in small pots, will all be watered exactly, according to your individual needs:
- Hedges
Adequate hydration is achieved by attaching a mounting pipe along the hedge with retaining pins. With the help of the toolkit, end-point drippers are installed in the pipe, e.g. one for each plant. The basic device is placed at the beginning of the pipe and the end cap is placed at the end. - Balcony and potted plants
For balcony plants growing in boxes, it is best to choose thin distribution pipes, which are easier to distribute among the plants. In the case of a greater number of boxes, they should be connected to one, larger assembly pipe with manifolds. Each box should have in-line drippers placed close to the plants for a better watering effect. If the plants are grown in pots, adjustable end drippers must be installed and connected to the distribution pipe. The base device must of course be placed at the beginning of the mounting tube. - Greenhouses
There is an option of fogging, intended mainly for greenhouse seedlings and drip sprinkling, for plants requiring root moistening.For the first one, fog nozzles attached to the mounting pipe should be used, which are attached to the upper part of the greenhouse by means of staples and a T divider. In order to sprinkle root systems, in-line drippers connected to a distribution pipe laid on the ground should be used. Both methods of watering in a greenhouse can be combined, and by supplying individual lines with shut-off valves, we will be able to use them independently. - Perennials and shrubs
The best way to irrigate small areas is to use the spray nozzles, which can be easily connected to the mounting pipe if necessary for a longer line. Nozzles with an adjustable diameter of sprinkling from 10 to 40 cm can be placed in any chosen places using special pins. - Flower beds and flower beds
The adjustable sprinkler Vario 50 is perfect for rectangular gardens with low vegetation.If you need to water tall plants, it can be raised with one or two extension pipes. Thanks to this solution, we will be able to water plants up to 40 cm high. - Balcony boxes
In balcony boxes located on balconies or terraces without access to water, the plants are supplied with water using an automatic watering can, which consists of three parts. The pump takes water from a tank, which can be a nice wooden barrel or a pot of a suitable size, and transports it to row drippers placed in boxes. A special transformer is used to control the automatic watering can, which allows you to select up to 13 different watering programs. - Potted and indoor plants
Another version of the automatic watering can can also be used when watering small plants at home. It is used to irrigate up to 36 potted plants, because it has 3 distributors with different capacities. Each distributor has 12 outlets that dispense water appropriately.
