Irrigation of plants in the garden

The recent hot summers, but also the hot spring or even autumn months, motivate gardening enthusiasts to be more concerned about the issue of irrigation. Rainless days and delicate plants that need regular watering is a combination that is definitely not liked. For this reason, the NEO, GRAPHITE and VERTO brands have prepared a wide range of water systems, which are easy to install even for an amateur and do not take long to use on a daily basis.

With accessories such as garden hoses, sprinklers, pumps, sprayers or couplers, all your plants will flourish and your lawn will have a luscious green colour. See how to approach the subject of irrigation in an economical and ecologically responsible way.

The garden hose is the most basic accessory, essential for both domestic irrigation systems and professional installations. The first parameter to think about when choosing it is length. Depending on the size of your garden, equip yourself with a hose that will reach the furthest corners of your plot. Also pay attention to the diameter of the hose. The most popular ones are characterised by ½", ¾" and 1". The larger the diameter - the more water pressure increases and watering becomes more efficient.

Hoses from the NEO and VERTO brands are not only characterised by their high performance class. They are resistant to harmful atmospheric factors and have more layers.

A must-have addition to hoses that will extend their usefulness and make them easier to store and use in the garden. There are ready-made hose sets with automatic retractors that are aesthetically pleasing, as well as universal trolleys or stands to accommodate products of different types and lengths.

Trolleys on comfortable wheels allow even massive hoses to be transported easily, while offering tidiness and immediate readiness. The racks are perfect for winter storage of accessories, guaranteeing stability and the added option of mounting on a façade or garage wall.

If you're looking to introduce a bit of technology into your garden and use automatic solutions, it's a good idea to use sprinklers. The most basic of these are static sprinklers, which are particularly suitable for small to medium-sized landscaped areas. They are characterised by their small range, but at the same time offer wide functionality and the possibility of combining them into personalised systems.

For owners of larger gardens, rotary sprinklers, also known as turbine sprinklers, will be a good option. Professional gardeners, on the other hand, are sure to be satisfied with long-range hammer sprinklers, used in fields, orchards, cultivated fields or pastures. However, if you want to forget about watering, we recommend irrigation controllers. With their help, you can set any level and frequency of watering.

However, these accessories are of little use if there are no high-quality, durable couplings that will last for many seasons of use. To connect garden hoses, pumps or sprinklers together, it is advisable to equip yourself with, for example, quick couplings. These are the elements that enable efficient installation and the creation of a convenient irrigation system. Reperators, on the other hand, as their name suggests, are used to repair broken hoses, but also to extend the water line.

A garden hose coupling allows, among other things, two shorter hoses to be connected together for further watering reach, to connect a hose to a valve or to separate an outdoor valve into two or more water outlets. Couplings can vary in their material of construction. Choose a plastic or brass piece for yourself. The NEO and VERTO brands offer accessories for many applications.

For smaller needs, or in situations of more precise plant watering - it is a good idea to opt for a garden sprayer. This is a type of device that can be partially filled with agents to protect flowers or seedlings from pests or weeds, and then used to spray crops conveniently.

Hand, shoulder or backpack sprayers can be distinguished by their various capacities, lance, pump or accessories. For more advanced purposes, it is worth opting for a pressurised device. Even the large capacity of this type of sprayer, with the right design worn on the back, contributes to the comfort of the work and the possibility of extending it, without the need to constantly fill the container.

Watering the garden with rainwater is not only an economical solution that is good for the wallet, but at the same time a completely logical step towards a conscious and modern irrigation system. In contrast to tap water - accumulated rainwater does not contain chlorine and fluoride, which are harmful to plants.

NEO rainwater containers ensure that rainwater is collected regardless of the size of the garden you have. Offered in a variety of capacities, with convenient taps and properly protected against leaf or insect litter - they are also suitable for allotments, orchards and small farm fields.

This is the solution for advanced gardening enthusiasts. Garden pumps are a combination of a hydraulic system, a motor and just a pump, which together allow water to be brought to the surface. They are professional devices of specialised design, allowing material to be extracted by immersion or placed in wells. They work well in areas that lack a permanent water connection or this connection is a long distance from the garden.

With the help of pumps, you can extend your reach and use naturally occurring and free sources for effective irrigation.
