The Micro-Drip system ensures precise, needs-based watering and helps to use water efficiently - ideal for supplying plants in the garden and on the balcony while saving resources.
In order for them to fulfil their valuable functions in the long term, their water supply must be guaranteed. It is important to use water as efficiently as possible and not to waste it. For example, by collecting it during rainfall and using an automatic drip irrigation system to dose and deliver it to the plants as required. In addition, healthy soil supports the water cycle. Like a sponge, it stores moisture and slowly releases it to the roots.
Five tips for resource-saving watering:
1. Collect rainwater in barrels or cisterns and use it for watering during dry periods. 2. Preferably water in the cool morning hours so that the water does not evaporate unused. 3. Hoeing once saves watering three times: If you follow this old gardening wisdom, you can increase the watering intervals. 4. The rule is: it is better to water thoroughly and vigorously once every few days than just a little every day. The latter spoils the plants and causes them to only spread their roots on the surface instead of going deep into the soil. 5. A mulch layer of grass clippings on beds and in containers helps to retain moisture in the soil for longer and increases the watering intervals.
