Blogged a Little Two Soon - Watering Still Needed

Well … it looks like I spoke (or perhaps blogged) a little too soon. After being on for a full day, the hose which connects the spigot to the drip system pipe started to bubble and leak … in preparation for bursting (which it hasn’t done yet – but is promising to). I will seek Layne’s expertise once again to see if he can help us – it looks (from my very inexperienced perspective) that we need a pipe (instead of a hose) to connect the spigot to the drip system.

SO, for the moment, the drip system is turned off. You may still start the drip system when you arrive and monitor it for 2 hours, then turn it off. But you will need to be prepared to take quick action to turn off the valve if the hose should burst (which I suspect it will). SO, WATERING is still needed – at least once a day, preferably twice daily. Please let me know if you are still doing/able to do watering on the previous schedule and/or if you are not on the schedule below but are able to help out with watering until we again have the drip system running.

Reply to Joan (jmg@csolutions.net) or blog the day(s) you are able to help with watering.

Thank you all for your patience.
