How to Use Soaker Dripline

At DripWorks we're passionate about creating beauty and bounty through gardening. Drip irrigation allows one to grow high quality foods, beautiful flowers, and decorative plants, while lowering our water bill and saving precious time. 

Soaker Dripline is one of DripWorks' all-time favorite product.

Soaker Dripline is a Dripworks' favorite! We love using Soaker Dripline and think you will too! We recommend Soaker Dripline because it's easy to use and immensely versatile. We use it in our raised vegetable garden beds, both at home and in the demo garden here at DripWorks. Soaker Dripline is perfect for irrigating small plots such as flower and strawberry beds, and works great inside containers on patios or along walkways (due to its incredible flexibility). Compliment your drip system with a Battery Timer, and you'll be able to automate your garden's irrigation needs to achieve reliable results wherever you grow.

If you enjoy gardening with containers around your deck, patio or yard, drip irrigation will prove to be a perfect addition to your portable garden. You may already know some of the advantages container gardening offers, including but not limited to:

    1. Portability = containers can be moved to the best spots

    2. Container gardens are great for beginners 

    3. Less bending over = less back pain
    4. Vegetables can be grown next to the kitchen

By combining these benefits with drip irrigation's root targeting technology you'll save time and worry about hand watering your plants, and will have more time to enjoy your decorative and delicious plants looking beautiful month after month. 

In the following post we'll explain how to setup your container onto a drip system, and will offer our recommendations for which emitter products work best and why.
