Drip Irrigation

Drip irri­ga­tion is the ide­al choice for plants sus­cep­ti­ble to foliar dis­eases, includ­ing toma­toes, cucum­bers, pep­pers, and egg­plants. Without over­head water­ing, which can spread dis­ease, your plants will be health­i­er than ever! Drip irri­ga­tion is also an excel­lent solu­tion for crops grown under plas­tic mulch (water­mel­on, squash, pump­kins, straw­ber­ries, etc.) as oth­er irri­ga­tion meth­ods may not effec­tive­ly reach the roots of the plants.

If drip irri­ga­tion doesn’t sound like the right choice for you, check out our Overhead Irrigation Kit. Specifically designed for our Farmers Friend Caterpillar Tunnels, our Overhead Irrigation Kit allows for eas­i­er cul­ti­va­tion (no drip tape in the way), can be used to cool tem­per­a­tures in sum­mer, doesn’t have to be moved each time you plant a new crop, and can pro­vide more even water­ing to thick plant­i­ngs of small leafy greens and cer­tain root crops. Alternatively, our Field Irrigation Kit will be ide­al for water­ing large areas at a time, gen­er­al­ly in out­door, uncov­ered beds.
