I'm starting to gather some interesting ideas for drip irrigation systems using recycled pet litter containers, milk jugs and 5 gallon paint/food containers. I would sure like to see this idea built on so if you have further resources please post them. There's so many good reasons for drip irrigation, putting water to the selected plants root systems, low evaporation and keeping your garden plants leaves dry which keeps water and air born bacteria under control. It could also free the gardener up time-wise, maybe take that weekend trip without having to worry about hiring someone to come and water for you.
