The product has worked great for me. It uses drip tubing to keep water at the root zone. I was interested in conserving as much water as possible, but I don't want my plants to suffer. Do you recommend this kind of irrigation? It seems to keep the ground pretty moist. The site is www.misterlandscaper.com. Thanks for your thoughts!

The time that you should avoid irrigating the garden is during the heat of mid-day. When watering during the evening, if you can try to allow enough time after irrigating for the plant foliage to dry out before the sun sets.

You'll be surprised how much it takes for the water to soak into the soil to reach a depth of a couple of inches.
