I have had a Gardenia watering system for my wall pots and hanging baskets for the last 6 years. It has been ok but now it is temperemental and try as I mght, I can't seem to get it to drip evenly. Some baskets/pots get water and some get nothing. I'm thinking I'll have to renew it, but all seem much the same. Can anyone recommend a reliable one please?
Ello, Ello? Anyone out there?:
sorry, maggie, can't help with your problem, our watering system consists of me, Ray, 2 watering cans and a hosepipe ;D
Hahaha Mal. Johnnyboy says he will fix it for me but nothing's happened yet except he has messed up the timer. ::)
get him on the watering can, he'll soon fix it ;D
I see a host of flying pigs out yonder. ;D
Just a thought, but is it possible that you could dismantle it and thoroughly clean and de-scale it? sometimes the dripper bits get clogged up, it could be that. Sometimes there's a filter built in, you can take that out and clean it. Sometimes they have a flushing system, that allows you to do these things without totally removing everything.
Put the dripperheads and the filter mesh in a bowl of vinegar for a few hours, then see how well it runs.... Gardena stuff is generally reliable, which is why it's so expensive compared to some of the generic stuff....
