MIXC 15M/50FT Drip Irrigation System Kit, Easy to Setup Automatic Watering with Anti-UV 1/4" Tubing, Water-Saving Adjustable Sprinklers for Garden Greenhouse Allotment Potted Plants

Simple to use for garden watering system. Eotks and saves my plants dying when I'm away. Good quality abd great value for money.

Great little set. I needed to add my own garden hose to reach from garden tap to green house. As I have 2 greenhouse, I had to cut the larger black feed tube in half and buy some hose splitters to make 2 seperate systems. They only supply one end stop, but got over that by plugging one with a short piece of 15mm copper pipe with a normal 15mm end stop on that. So this system is designed to be used as one continuous feed system but can be adapted into 2 seperate systems. The micro tubes are not user friendly. Almost impossible to get onto the nipples, and boiling water a must to soften them. Once softened, they go on quite easily, but once cooled, they don't really shrink and so put them on as carefully as possible, at a 90 degree push, to minimum little leaks.

Application: potted flowers and vegtables in pots and troughs. A very good election of drip feeders with firm fit. However, recommend firstly, softening tube in hot water and have a good grip, use a small washing flannel for grip. Generous lengths of tubing, but Plan before you start installing; plan as you install and problems will arise. Advised to use the 8 hole dripper as a preference to minster as ministers in some instances minsters can encourage mould. This, meant a further purchase of 8 hole drippers. The outcome to date is as planned. Plan, ensure all tubing connection are pushed on fully and you should not be disappointed with the produc. A Rainpoint Timer, 2 Zone is used with the equipment supplied in the Kit.

I bought this kit recently as I needed to find a way to ensure my garden (with a few species of particularly thirsty plants) will be quenched - in the summer months. The kit comes with: one main larger diameter hose (probably around the same diameter as a uk standard hose pipe) then a load more smaller diameter pipe for the branch lines, along with all the fittings, heads (mist head, spray head and shower head) that you could possibly need. I would say make sure you plan your route out carefully as if you imagine it like a motorway, then the lines are all A roads and the individual plants are B roads. I found it was better to work backwards from the destination plants. I was dubious about the capacity of the main hose to supply the number of destinations I have in my garden so I made sure to use the main hose as much as possible, then minimise the number of heads on each line. I didn't need to worry as (you will see in my video) the system has covered my entire plot with ease, so much so- that I added more heads to each line. I have used mostly misters (orange ones) but a few shower and other ones here and there. My verdict is that this product is accurate to the description, it can be used unbelievably effectively with careful utilisation and is excellent value.

This is the second MIXC 68m item I have purchased but it was not the same. There were fewer junctions and the pipe was shorter. Even the drippers had changed.

We were going on holiday and I decided at the beginning of the year that I would transform my small terrace garden into something filled with flowers, roses and also vegetables. As it approached going away and the news that a heatwave was going to hit the UK I was terribly concerned that all of the work and money that I’d spent would be wasted and my garden wouldn’t survive so I decided to get an irrigation system. This one seemed the best value and needed to cover a high number of planters, pots and the garden itself. I was so worried that it would be hard to plan out and what I needed to put where, never mind the thought of would it work and how hard it was to put together. I didn’t need to worry, it was simple, straightforward and didn’t take me long to install all of the nozzles and attachments as well as a timer. It’s the best thing that I’ve done and now it will remain in place forever. Saves me having to go round night after night when it’s hot and water which takes a good half an hour. Now I just leave it to do it’s thing and my garden is blooming.

Great starter pack for irrigation. This is my first attempt at irrigation, purely for holiday/vacation. The 1/2 inch pipe is very flexible and comes flat. It is a bit short, but I was able to make use of an old hosepipe. The 1/4 inch pipe is not very flexible though. It is stuck in the form that it's delivered in, so the loops stay. It isn't unworkable though as the watering spikes hold in place enough, just about. I did use some additional pipe holder spikes that I bought separately though. The good thing is that there is plenty of the pipe. I found that hot water is best to get the quarter inch pipe onto the sprinkler nozzles. A heat gun was too harsh and inaccurate. I had to use very hot water though, so I boiled a litre of water in a saucepan and dunked the last 5-8mm of pipe for about 4 seconds. The was the sweet spot for getting the pipe on the nozzle. I would dunk the pipe longer as the water cooled. 10 seconds was the limit, after that I would reboil the water. There was hardly any leaks. Those that were there were minimal given that the water was being spread around by the sprinklers anyway.

East to fit up and works great plants looking lovely now

Arrived in good order. Been used on vegetables garden and plants. I will deal with the company again.

First of all, you need good water pressure. Most city water systems should be good, but if you're on a well, peep that PSI before you start. Second, have reasonable expectations. I ran one entire set through my garden, using every T joint and every nozzle, and with the nozzles set to spray just a bit (i.e. not go full blast) I had plenty of pressure. When I added a second kit, and used all the T joints and nozzles again, I did run out of water about 1/3 of the way down the line. All I did was turn a few nozzles off entirely, and lowered the amount coming out of the others to a trickle. Since the nozzles were right at the base of the plants for the most part, and I've got some straw down to help keep the moisture in, they'll still get what they need. N.B.: Use a lighter when putting it all together. The tubing has to be warmed before it fits over the various joints, then it seals well when it cools. I had no leaks with this method. If you don't have a lighter and only have matches, put a small candle in a bowl and hold the tubing over it for a bit to warm it instead. (Also saves you a bunch of butane.) Comes with a zillion connectors for your hose, so I can't imagine it not working for whatever setup your house has for exterior plumbing. A great little kit for the price.
