Man, this is all so diligent, clean and accurate for everything. My garden looks entirely like I just looked and went "eh, good enough" for everything built after this haha

Wow! I guess this is the difference between having a gardening youtuber explain a build and having a diy builder explain a build. This is by far the best video I've seen on how to do this. Thank you!

Man, your videos are top notch. Informative, clear, clean and very thorough. Wish i would have found you before i started my solar water system!

By far the best instructional PVC irrigation video!! This fall my family will be installing a PVC irrigation to our newly acquired land. Thank you for making this video...I'd give it 10 stars our of 5 if I could!

Wow! Very clear instructions and supply listings and beautifully filmed and put together also . Thanks so much, love the straight line trick!

Thank you so much for putting this video out ! I have tried everything to water my garden without me having to hand water each plant. This video is clear to follow and so instructive. I can't wait to start a garden this year with this irrigation technique. Thank you again for this easy to follow watering tips and supply list. 🙂

I love the idea of the pvc pipe rather than tubing! Well done and thanks a lot for the video.

You’ve done an amazing job with this. Your directions are explicit and clear. Thanks.

One of the better videos I've seen on the subject, thank you! Also extremely helpful that you listed the parts!

These are some of the coolest videos I have watched on KZread ever. I will be trying this out for sure. What I really appreciate about your videos is that you explain what you are using and how. That makes it much less daunting attempting this myself. Props!

Very good video. I love the tips on marking and cutting the pvc. I too have been experimenting with many different systems for raised beds and all have pros and cons. I have installed a new system this year that is cloned off of a commercial irrigation system for strawberry farming. The "drip" hose is entirely under the surface and waters the roots saving a lot of water vs above ground irrigation. Only in operation for 2 months but as dry as we have been in the mid Atlantic this spring its already paying dividends.

Dude, you make fantastic videos. They are informative, understandable and extremely detailed. Thanks so much. God bless.

This is a good system, I made one for my hugelkultur raised bed. My tubes were 14 ft long with 1/16" holes every 3 inches. You can get away without valves. I put restrictor disc's that were home made from plastic rod, with about 3/8" opening into the two outer tubes to more or less equalize the flow. Saves the expense and space used with valves. I really didn't glue anything since all fit snug. Good job on the video!

Great video! Thanks for taking the time to do this for us!

OOH you cut collard greens like my family do. It is rare that I find someone who cut up greens the same way. LOVE IT

lots of work initially to set it up but each year after that there would be little cost or work involved. growing healthy food yourself is so satisfying and rewarding. i have been gardening for years and for me there is nothing like getting out in the garden and enjoying the quiet. i like to go barefooted in my garden as it connects me with the earth. even if you do raised beds you can take your shoes off and work your garden. try it if you have not in the past. you may find it will refresh you mind and body.

As an irrigation contractor I gotta say this is a super weird way to do it lol. Like the creative aspect, but honestly using proper dripline is so much easier and better looking (not soaker hose, actual dripline - lookup rainbird dripline). All you need is some stakes and some barbed fittings to put it together. You can do a grid like in this video. The barbed fittings just need to be inserted into the dripline and that's it - no clamps or glueing. Each dripline hole (emitter) is pressure regulated and ensures that 0.9 gallons per hour comes out of each emitter so you have even watering.

The dripline methods seems difficult is you do hard density garden. I have 3 raised 4 x 6. I plant lettuce, carrots, radishes, small plants between my taller . I was looking at soaker hoses, the drip lines..but putting all those individual holes for the sprayers seems a lot of work. I found on a different video, "The Garden Grid System ". I'm looking at that.

I'm also an Irrigation contractor and can't agree more. You can also use poly pipe and put emitters in with the gph range you need. There are so many better ways to do this...I have to smh.

I like this way of doing it. I read the contractors comment and I have used similar stuff from crop king. I mix my water and fertilizer in a tank and pump it into the system. I have had emitters that clog and the punch hole and the barbs connection was not always the best. I use a pvc system similar to this now and for me it is better.

Awsome mate.. I'd like to experiment with bigger holes on top of the tubing with the tubing placed closer to lettuce both sides in order to quicken watering times to minimize the house pump working

Very craftsman level work by Robert. This system seems a lot more durable than the drip systems that include 1/2 inch and 1/4 inch perforated tubing. The only thing missing is a fertilizer injector!

This is a great series of videos - thank you for bringing us along on your learning journey! Having used both soaker hoses and the PVC piping, what advantages do you see in this approach over the soaker hoses? One that I picked up from your video was that you can set the spacing of the holes to provide more or less water based on what’s planted underneath. Are there other benefits? Is it worth the added complexity? I’m considering the alternatives for my garden, so I appreciate you sharing your experience.

@GreenTechTown

Hey Rudi von Staden, great question. You mentioned one of the great benefits regarding hole placement. I also like how easy it is to completely remove from the garden when the colder season approaches, or when I need full access to the garden/soil. I also like how I have a little more control over how much water a certain row may receive. I would definitely also recommend looking into some of the commercial options available. I plan to try a few others and compare the pros/cons. PVC is an easy material to work with for most, so I wanted to also give this a shot.

I like this idea.

I just discovered you….I wish you was my son ! Brilliant!

It's amazing you are the best

I like your set up, im going to be using rain harvesting water, im also using a 12v pump, but I set up my 12v pump with a pressure accumulation tank, the pump will be running on solar....you sold me on the pvc, im having problems ordering a drip irrigation system, I live in Puerto Rico 🇵🇷

Great video. But I do wonder about the concept of breaking up the water schedule into two parts, allowing the first watering to soak in a little, then follow up with a second watering in x minutes. Have you experimented with this? Would love to get info on this method. Thanks.

I can see using PVC in square foot garden working double duty, for the grid and watering. Well thought out!!! Being able to control the water flow to each zone is great. Do you rotate your crops? How does PVC hold up to UV over time? I’ve found they sag and break down over time.

Thank you very much, now I know how I am going to water my shrubs
