Look at the Time you Saved me

Eliot Coleman and many other farmers have automated systems that afford them the freedom to do many other things in their farms and gardens. As we go along we have tried to come up with things that will also save us time amongst other savings. The Soil Block is one thing that saved us time, space, money and resources. The savings from the Soil Blocks seemed endless. One thing that is found on farms and in some gardens as well as greenhouses is some type of water system. It may be a multi source system. It could be from over head. It could be a ground level. It could come from underneath the plant.

Needless to say there are several ways to water your plants. For our size garden an oscillating sprinkler that covers 3,000 square feet seemed plenty. Things are never nearly as much as they might sound when you are thinking in the grand scheme of things. For a mere $8 we plan on saving a lot of time. During those hot summer days when the sky does not open up to offer some relief through rain, we will be pulling the sprinkler out.

It is a great way to get other things done. You can put it on for a pre determined amount of time at night when the sun is less likely to evaporate the much needed water. Or you can set it out during the early morning while you work in the garden. Whichever you choose, it will be a worthy investment and time saver. We could not be more thrilled. It will also help those who are not used to watering plants, when you are away and someone else has to do it.

What are some ways you save time in your garden whether outdoors or indoors? What automated systems are available to you? Don’t know. Tell us what you will be watering and where and we will get back to you with an answer. As always you are the best part of what we do. Keep sharing.
