Our hybrid potted plant irrigation kit comes in two sizes, small and medium, which are designed to irrigate 100 to 180 potted plants respectively. Our kits are built within the specs of the ½” poly tube and fittings they include. The small kit has a maximum flow rate of 174 gph, which is well below the flow rate capacity of ½” poly tube. This means that you can use all the emitters and ¼” drip line included in the kit on a single line of poly tube. Our medium sized kit has a maximum flow rate of 318 gph. While this does exceed the maximum flow rate of a single line of ½” poly tube (220 gph), we have provided enough poly tube and head assembly components to create two separate systems, giving you plenty of head room. This is accomplished with a “Y” ball valve which allows you to connect to separate lines of poly tube. Please keep in mind when installing either system that you do not exceed the 220 gph threshold of a single line of ½” poly tube.
- Connection to hose spigot with backflow prevention, screen filter, and pressure regulation.
- Fittings for ½” poly tube are compression style meant to fit on the exterior of the tube. Fittings for ¼” poly tube are barbed.
- Contains pressure compensating emitters and ¼” drip line.
- Allows the ability to irrigate potted plants and in-ground plants, all at the same time. Drip line can also be utilized to coil around the base of a plant above their root zone for even water distribution.
- Manual poly tube ball valves provided in this kit can be utilized to isolate areas to adjust watering times between zones.
- Can be installed above ground or underground in low foot traffic areas.
- Materials in this kit are UV protected and have fantastic resistance to environmental stress.
