A heat dome is heading for the Eastern US after already hitting Western states. With a threat to dehydrate and wipe out our gardens, there's no better time to install a drip irrigation system. They deliver water directly to plant roots through a tube at a low, gradual pressure, reducing water waste and saving you hours of tirelessly watering your garden.
It can seem daunting to set up a DIY drip irrigation system, but I've just stumbled across an Amazon drip irrigation kit that has all the components you need for less than $50. I love the fact it can be set up in a number of ways, perfect for lawn irrigation and keeping patio plants hydrated alike, and making it low-effort to water plants during a heatwave. Plus, it has adjustable nozzles so you can choose the right water pressure for your plants.
