New Irrigation System
March 18, 2010
Thanks to Dave Carter, and students Sam Kessler, Nate Koenemann, and Phillip Williams, the greenhouse is being fitted with a state of the art sub-irrigation system. Fed with rain gutters and municipal water, the system recycles the runoff, therefore drastically conserving water. The sub-irrigation is a better way to water the plants. It keeps the leaves and surface of the soil dry, cutting down on algae, mold and related insect pests, while delivering water where it is needed….the roots.
Thanks guys!!!!
