Irrigation notes
We almost had to bring the sprinklers out this
week, but a few good rounds of natural rain made everybody in the
garden happy.
Hopefully the rain will continue to be reliable.
A couple of sprinklers mounted on metal fence posts worked well for us
last year. The extra height increased the distance a bit and made it
easy to reposition.
The water comes directly from a pump in the creek, so the pressure is
enough to handle three sprinklers, but two seem to work best.
