Regular watering is essential for crops grown in containers, hanging baskets and grow bags. It is important to channel water direct to the roots of thirsty plants and we offer various solutions that will take care of this. Weather responsive SMART drip irrigation systems can be installed to deliver water directly to plants when they most need it. Applied slowly, water gradually soaks to the roots, rather than running off or evaporating. It will save you time and reduce the amount of water that's wasted.
