I wanted to list this in tractor projects but I figured the moderators would move it to here anyway. I have successfully gotten our food plots plowed, seeded, fertilized and disked in. Three hours after we finished it started raining and rained a gentle 3 inches of rain over 2 days time. Its now 10 days later and everything is coming up beautifully. I have the ability to water a 2 acre plot close to the well but moving one of the tripod type sprinklers around is a pain and you end up stepping on the new plants. I'd love to hear from anyone who has devised a way to water large areas short of installing a sprinkler system. My well is set at about 60lbs so I've got good pressure but I'm thinking if I could figure out a drip method that wouldn't break the bank or I've considered elevating the sprinkler on a wire suspended thru the plot about twelve feet in the air should do it and having a high tension wire strung between a pole on either end to pull the sprinkler back and forth on but my CFO rolled her eyes at this idea so I'm looking for anything that the TBN brain trust has come up with. Any hillbilly method is fine Please share your inventions last planting everything came up, the drought continued and it all went right back down into the dirt we'd been without measureable rain for 8 months.
Thanks
