Gardening enthusiasts get beautiful, healthy plants and a lush harvest with precise and even watering. The GARDENA Micro-Drip-System brings the water drop by drop directly to the roots where it is absorbed by the plants. With a completely revised structure and improved individual components, the popular system starts the new gardening season.

Especially in the summer months, garden plants have a high moisture requirement. Gardeners know this, but they don’t want to waste water either. The ideal solution is a drip watering system like the GARDENA Micro-Drip-System. It delivers water drop by drop exactly where the plants need it: at the roots. In this way, not a drop is wasted and evaporation is kept to a minimum. At the same time, overwatering and waterlogging are avoided. This makes this type of watering much more efficient than using a watering can or hose.

Practical sets for versatile use

The entire Micro-Drip range has been completely revised. Gardeners can now find what they need for their watering requirements more quickly. This is because the number of individual components in the system have been significantly reduced. The clear colour classification in the different application areas helps with orientation and making the right choice. The new sets offer appropriate watering solutions, for example, for the balcony and terrace, vegetable patches or flower beds, raised beds or hedge plants.

The design of the individual sprayers, nozzles and connecting parts has also been renewed. Now, small symbols make it clear at first glance which application is involved or how the installation is to be carried out.

Even more flexible with new “Quick and Easy” connection technology

The patented “Quick and Easy” connection technology has always been an inspiration. It guarantees fast system assembly and a permanently tight pipe connection. In addition, the system parts can be detached and reassembled if the arrangement of the plants has changed. This connection technology has also been improved once again. The new, intuitive design facilitates installation makes it much easier to expand an existing system. Small symbols show the direction of rotation of the connectors and at the “click”, gardening enthusiasts know that everything fits and a tight connection has been created. The connecting pipe has become more flexible and easier to roll out. The holding force of the pipe pegs has also been strengthened.

Dripper, nozzle or drip pipe

The drippers and spray nozzles have also been given a helping hand. The design of the new nozzles indicates the spray pattern. This makes selection easier. For better differentiation, the maximum application rate is marked on the outside of the pressure-compensating end drippers.

The range includes the suitable row or endline dripper for each application. In addition to the standard dripper for solitary plants in pots or hedge plantings, there are adjustable drippers for plants with different need of water or pressure-compensating drippers that are used when height differences have to be overcome.

From 2023, a new drip irrigation line will be available that can be laid flexibly above or below ground. This means that the system can also invisibly water the hedges with a precise amount of water.

Attention has also been paid to the packaging of the individual components.  This is now made of recycled and recyclable cardboard and can also be resealed for storage.

Clever control means ideal watering

When it comes to watering, it is not only a question of the right amount of water, but also of watering the plants at the right time and at the right intervals. Early morning is the best time to water, when the soil absorbs the water particularly well and the nutrients around the roots are released. Automatic watering control ensures exactly that and with it, daily care virtually takes care of itself.

In combination with watering control and a sensor that measures the soil moisture, drip watering is used even more cleverly. If the soil is moist enough, watering is not required and is automatically suspended.

The GARDENA Micro-Drip-System enables gardeners to care for their plants while conserving resources. This is because every drop of water is used efficiently with this economical system. Further useful tips on the subject of garden watering can be found at gardena.com/cleverwatering.
