Hi Kris Great video as always, I’m in process of installing a system and wondering about timings for various plants,palms ,gunners, bamboos,bananas and general plants such as dahlia canna salvias and such Thanks Kevin
Morning Chris just watched your set up for water irrigation brilliant how often and how long do you have it on for especially on tree fern as my tree fern is about 4ft 3years old and I cut fonds of last year and fonds are lot smaller this year.😩
Very informative vid, I just love looking at all of that beautiful plants, your zebra grass is so tal and lush. Thanks for sharing Kris!!!
Great video, you make it look so easy!
It's not too difficult really😀
Nice job Kris. Will be setting up IBC tanks for my garden in the future.
Very informative. Thank you
Thanks for watching
Hi Kris
Great video as always, I’m in process of installing a system and wondering about timings for various plants,palms ,gunners, bamboos,bananas and general plants such as dahlia canna salvias and such
Thanks Kevin
It's really trial and error. Flow rate will depend on pressure and number of drippers etc
Hi Kris, great video. I tried to set something up this summer but it needs more work. Any recommendations for suppliers?
Kris when best to move tree 3year old tree fern 👍

Tree ferns get about 20 to 30 minutes each time. It'll really depend on flow rate and number of drippers used
Great video Kris. I am in Yorkshire like you, does the current hose pipe ban not apply to this sort of irrigation system?
I've had it in writing that these are fine under the hosepipe ban
It's perfectly OK to use an irrigation system during a hosepipe ban as long as the system is on a timer.
Yes that's almost always correct. But I've heard some water companies did ban irrigation systems for ornamental plants.
Hi, compared to watering by hand, how long do you leave the drip feeds running to water the tree ferns. Thanks.
About 20 to 30 minutes each time
Just had to do this as the wife has broken her ankle. And I work away from home. Very interesting.
Sorry to hear that. This can really reduce the need to water a lot by hand
