I am a farmer and we have very large fields, before drip irrigation system was found it was a nightmare to irrigate all those fields because where i live is a place that does not rain so much. Now we use drip irrigation, saving so many water and it is a lot easier to irrigate the field with that. I am trying to read everything about drip irrigation and i recommend every farmer to use that technique, so i am grateful for everyone who gives information about it. I also found a very good guide about drip irrigation and it may be useful too for those who want to learn more information about that; http://agricultureguide.org/ It is a useful information about drip irrigation.

So I drill a 3/8" hole and stuff a chunk of sponge in it. For smaller plants I use the big cans from restaurants.

I have been doing that with milk jugs, but I never thought of increasing the scale. Great idea. That is great! I have been doing that with milk jugs, but I never thought of increasing the scale.
