I finally got all of my pots on my irrigation timer. I put a low pressure valve in and ran 3/4 pvc pipe to different locations in my yard and stubbed up. I used this to attach my 1/2 drip irrigation line and from that I put in my 2 gph emitter and ran my 1/4 emitter line from the emitter in through the bottom drain hole in my pot and out above my soil. Now I can set my timer to water as needed. I control the amount of water by the size of emitter I put in. I love it, it frees me completely from hand watering.

Hi Laura! Another great video. I have always used clay pots as they are best for drainage and give the roots more air. Recently I've been having back issues and I wanted to get some lighter pots. I just couldn't get myself to buy the plastic though! What are your thoughts on this?

Super helpful! Now I have the answers I had about my tomatoes getting a mildew on them. If I have a raised planter (I have a Vegtrug) and I feel the soil is still really moist to touch should I still be consistently watering every day?

In the evening as the sun wanes i water then, and yet there is enough sun and daylight to dry on the leaves, so that as darkness falls the leaves are nice and dry and not inviting those snails and slugs to feast overnight.

Stuff like this is super helpful. I appreciate it when you break down what seems simple. Helps me to establish a better gardening foundation as I figure all this out.
