Before, when we went on family vacations, our parents left the house keys with the neighbors. And they were the ones who were in charge of going every day - or once a week - to water the plants.
Today it happens to us that we practically do not know our neighbors. So leaving the key to water the ficus is a little more uncomfortable .
If you have a garden - small or large - and you want to go on a quiet vacation , here are five useful automatic irrigation systems.
1. Aqua Control C4061 with programmer
This automatic irrigation system is ideal for balconies with many plants. And is that the Aqua Control C4061 is a kit for twelve pots or planters (indistinctly) that will come in handy to water the balcony pots, but also a small garden, flowers, hedges and small shrubs.
The most interesting thing about this kit is that it includes an irrigation system that consumes much less than if we irrigated through a hose or sprinkler. You can feed your plants in a more precise way and also do it with less water. Inside the box we will also find a faucet programmer with LED, a 3/4 ″ pressure reducer, drippers with a stake and different microtubes and adapters.
Self-compensating drippers are included so that each pot has the same flow rate, regardless of the distance they are from the water source and the slope that exists.
