Hi Pete,

It’s because of very similar calculations that I got started on the idea of an irrigation system being more or less vital. However, I quite quickly dismissed any thoughts of duplicating rainfall since it is far too wasteful due to evaporation and ‘poor targeting’ etc.

At the moment I am concentrating on being able to put as much moisture as possible in exactly the right soil points to make the most efficient use of my waterbuts. So far, ‘drippers’ and ‘sprinkle heads’ have been eliminated for the above reasons but I’m haing some interesting results with in soil soakers.
