Drip irrigation arrived today, for a small test plot of approx 200 evergreens. To combat new tree die off. Before I plant this fall, Most likely caused by lack of water. I shall see. Looking forward to learning something new. Insight and Tips by experienced irrigation folks is appreciated.

Finished installing my new drip irrigation on 200 new Xmas trees. Ran 4,3/4" inch main lines came off 3/4" with 1/4 line to perforated 1/4" around trees. If I don't have carpal tunnel I do know putting 1/4" barbed ts and couplers is a royal pia. Taught myself a few tricks and learned something.new for if I continue irrigation on future trees. Any questions feel free to ask id be happy to tell you my experiences for first time drip irrigation installation. Initial test at end of 3/4" using perforated tree ring line put almost 2 quarts of water in a bucket in 25 mins to give me an idea what the shallow well can do and feeder lines can dispense.

I ordered the one you showed Friday in green since I have a JD. They have a camera on sale also.

Maybe I should add to order...

I went out to see how much of a PITA it is to look around to operate and immediately went back inside to find a BU camera system and magnets I just happened to have on hand for another project. Installed Sat.I will start stump grinding on Monday.

If I didn't have a camera system on hand, I would have put one on order.

May not be right for you, but my neck is 87 yrs old, I know better than be out there cutting down trees and grinding stumps but I can't help myself and it beats watching TV.
