The greenhouse in the country. We make a watering system.
Occasionally some cottage or smallholding complete without a small teplichke. Such teplichku you can buy ready-made, built to order, or make your own. Many variants have glass greenhouses and even of glass, polycarbonate, and the film, metal or wood. Everything is fine. With one exception: rare in a greenhouse can be seen system of irrigation, and we do not speak about automation. For those who want to bring their teplichku to perfection and to equip it with a modern system of drip irrigation and read this article. We will not be seen in it all known simple solutions, which are based on thin-walled drip tapes. We want to offer you a new, original solutions. Since Teplička is not built for one season and for many years, the irrigation system should also be in a teplichke designed to work within a few years. It is therefore necessary to use thick-walled tube drip emitter or external.
TUBE.
Since chalet greenhouses usually are small, we want to offer you to use a drip tube or tubes for external droppers diameter of 8 millimeters. This diameter is sufficient for drip lines up to 25 meters long. Typically, the length of summer greenhouses is 6-8 meters, but even if it is twenty meters greenhouse, all the same tube diameter of 8 mm. ensure the normal operation of such a system.
In addition to dropping or 8-mm connecting pipe, for you require special fittings and something else to you can easily mount a watering system in your greenhouse. In the photo above, you see eight millimeter dropping tube in coils of 25 meters and the connecting pipe in the bay containing 100 meters. To connect external droppers with tips used another type of tube diameter of 3/5 mm.
FITTING.
To work with a micro irrigation (let's call it so), there is a whole set of mikrofitingov that includes barbed plungers corners troynichki, crosses, plugs. All this is well-aligned with mikrofitingami applied for minisprinklerov. These fittings have a slight taper, easily inserted into each other and are held securely at pressures up to 3 atmospheres. There is also a fitting transition to 1/2 and 3/4 inch. If it is necessary to reduce the pressure in the system, it is possible to use a special gear, reducing the pressure to 1.4 atm or 2.0. There are also minikrany antidrenazhnye and valves. To water with a dropper can be fed directly to the roots of plants, two types of tips are used: a conventional labyrinth. If connected to a drip a few tips, the splitters used for two or four directions and tips with the maze. If the drip is attached to the tip 1, then use the tip of the maze without.
EXTERIOR DROPPER
How to deal with a dropping tube I think no need to explain. And here is how to use the dropper in the villa outside the greenhouse will have a little talk. Exterior droppers that we can use are divided into 3 types: a dropper with the release of a splitter and a few tips, drip with the release of their brush attachment 1 for a tip and mikrokapelnitsy mounted in the tip of the tube. See photos:
To connect to the fittings and drippers to the water supply system, used pipe diameter 4/7 mm. A tip for connection to the hub or directly to an IV tube 3/5 mm. Mikrokapelnitsa "droplet" is inserted directly into the tube diameter of 4/7 mm.
In our pictures, for compactness depicted short lengths of tubes. In practice, the length of these tubes can be tens of centimeters. Just cut off the tube the correct length, so that the water supplied directly to the plant roots.
On the left photo shows the three types of droppers complete with tubes.
NOTE : To ease the work of the assembly, before pulling on a drip tube or fitting, heat it in hot water. This will facilitate, simplify and speed up work. Well, in addition, parts of your irrigation system will remain safe and intact!
