- Containers
- Hanging baskets
- Automated watering
A plug-and-play kit that turns a hose bib into an automated drip line for up to 20 containers - the easiest entry point for balcony and patio gardeners who travel.
Pros
- Tool-free 3-step setup - if you can attach a hose, you can install it
- Includes a programmable digital timer, so pots get watered while you travel
- Pressure-compensating drippers keep output even from the first pot to the last
Cons
- 1/4 in supply tubing only - too small for large in-ground or lawn zones
- Multiple user reports of barbed fittings leaking or cracking after a season
- Capped at 20 drippers, so bigger gardens need extra tubing and emitters
