Great video again. Thanks for that. Looks like it’ll be easier than a watering can!

I've done that before and definitely going to be easier than that I hope.

You experiment so we don't have to, thanks and enjoy your 'Buy me a Coffee' coffee (or 2!) on me!! I notice the flow drops when going through the venturi because of the restriction. Would it work better to keep the 32mm through the venturi bypass but have a restricter valve on the venturi pipe? Again, you experiment so we don't have to!!!!! Cheers!

Thanks for the tips and thank you so much for the coffee!! - Needless to say that I will be down at the coffee shop this afternoon ;) Flow definitely drops for sure, so I will have to keep an eye on that. I may have to experiment further to get the right system, but I'll take your comments on board. A

A very interesting video. I am moving to a small holding in Wales from Wiltshire. The property has a borehole, would be very interested in your water set up and what filters you use. So glad you are back online.

Hi there. Thank you for your comment. Yes, I will be interested in how it all turns out in the end. Needless to say another video will be needed to see how it goes ;). Good luck in your small holding too. A

I fertilize a few grapes in my yard with a venturi and water wand and mostly like it. But I don't think I would do it over a distance like you are, venturies are very sensitive to back pressure. Even the terrain causes me concern, let alone the internal resistance of the pipes and any flow control you are using at each plant. You should do lots of testing before installing that pipe. Personally, I would drive a fertilizer tank down the rows and shoot a hose right at the row. Then water it in as needed. Good luck.

Hi there. Very useful comment, thank you. I must admit I am far from convinced that anything I attempt is going to work as I planned. We will see what it's like and if I need a plan B then I'll do another video on that.

Hi I hope you are well. Water makeup.? Its good that you will have it tested , the results will be vital in forms of action. My wells water is calcium rich with bells on. Its a massive issue if your using all things pvc and metal, it blocks drip systems. Now because of this issues we collect rain water in an 8 thousand LTR gravity system using a solar pump and panels. The whole farm in fact is solar with grid as only a back up. Its rainy season here so no issues with storage. I think your right about the T venturi size as long as the exit is not too big. That's it really, as normal the videos are down to earth and full of really good advice with relaxed explanations. Best wishes. C.

Hi there. Thats very interesting. Fortunately we are in a low calcium area here where the water has been filtered by layers of sandstone. If we were further south in the country then calcium would be a real issue. I think Manganese may prove high here, but we can put the appropriate filter to get rid of that. I am realistic to see that this system may not work, but we will test it. I think your system sounds great and very effective with the solar pump too. Thanks for the comment. A
