I have decided to utilize a drip irrigation system this year. Here is my start. Having never done the drip thing before I wanted to sort of know what to expect so I used my little bed of onions, shallots, and garlic as a learning center or test plot. This little system was installed Saturday and to my amazement it works really well.

I think I will like the idea that when I water plants this year I will not be watering all the weeds and grasses located in the walkways and along the fence. Hoeing just kills my back.

Here is a pic of the irrigated onion patch taken a few minutes ago.
