Transform your garden care routine with this DIY automatic hedge watering system! In this video, I show you how to build a simple yet effective irrigation solution for your hedges, flowerbeds, shrubs, trees, or lawn. Using a soaker hose, valve box, and an irrigation controller, I guide you step-by-step through assembling the manifold, digging trenches, connecting pipes, and testing for leaks to ensure everything runs perfectly.
What you’ll see in this video:
✅ How to assemble and install a soaker hose irrigation system.
✅ Tips for connecting components like solenoid valves, pressure reducers, and quick connectors.
✅ Testing the manifold for leaks and optimizing water distribution.
✅ Creating an efficient, automated watering setup with a Hunter X-Core irrigation controller.
This project is perfect for gardeners looking to save time and keep their plants healthy with a reliable and automated solution. Whether you’re maintaining a 10-year-old hedge or planning an outdoor garden upgrade, this system is designed to make watering easy and efficient.
