Microirrigation - University of Florida
1 like383 views
This document discusses microirrigation systems for landscaping. There are four main types of microirrigation systems - micro-sprayers, micro-bubblers, drippers, and drip tubing. Microirrigation systems conserve water by applying small amounts directly to plant roots, lowering evaporation. They are simple to install, maintain, and adjust for plant growth. While initial costs are higher than traditional sprinklers, microirrigation saves water and is recommended for landscape beds.

Vermi-composting is a process that uses worms to break down organic matter into nutrient-rich compost. Red wigglers and yellow worms are best for composting as they reproduce quickly and eat a lot of food. A vermi-composting bin needs shredded newspaper, kitchen scraps, worms, and holes for air flow. Worms thrive in temperatures between 60-80属F and need food, air, water, and darkness. The finished compost product, known as castings, improves soil quality and can be used in gardens.Agriculture in Florida Sustainable solutions to water and climate challenge...

Chaulukya or Solanki was one of the Rajputs born from Agnikul. In the Vadnagar inscription, the origin of this dynasty is told from Brahma's Chauluk or Kamandalu. They ruled in Gujarat from the latter half of the tenth century to the beginning of the thirteenth century. Their capital was in Anahilwad. It is not certain whether it had any relation with the Chalukya dynasty of the south or not. It is worth mentioning that the name of the dynasty of the south was 'Chaluky' while the dynasty of Gujarat has been called 'Chaulukya'. The rulers of this dynasty were the supporters and patrons of Jainism.How to Manage Multi Language for Invoice in Odoo 18

Hillsborough County Extension 5339 S County Road 579 Seffner, FL 33584 (813) 744-5519 Website: http://hillsborough.extension.ufl.edu FACT SHEET: Microirrigation LYNN BARBER, B.A., FLORIDA YARDS & NEIGHBORHOODS AGENT Microirrigation conserves water in the landscape and easily connects to an outdoor spigot/hose bib. This system provides small amounts of water directly to the root zone of landscape plants. There are 4 types of microirrigation: micro-sprayers, micro-bubblers, drippers and drip tubing. 4 Types of Microirrigation Micro-S prayers Micro-Bubblers Drippers Drip Tubing Micro-sprayers/sprinklers have interchangeable emitters that can produce up to 25 gph. This type sprayer is installed on a stake, wetting foliage and a larger surface area of 4-6 feet. It is easy to see if the sprayer is working properly. Micro-bubblers are installed on short stakes, have solid spray or rays in 180 or 360 degree patterns, an adjustable flow up to 25 gph, are used to establish and maintain larger plants, and have less evaporation than micro-sprayers/sprinklers. Drippers come in sizes from 0.5 to 24 gph, apply water directly to the soil resulting in minimal evaporation, attach to a distribution tube or spaghetti tubing and are used for widely spaced plants or containers. Drip tubing contains factory installed emitters inside the tubing that are pressure compensating, with a flow rate of 0.9 gph per foot and has fewer parts/pieces than other types of microirrigation.

Hillsborough County Extension 5339 S County Road 579 Seffner, FL 33584 (813) 744-5519 Website: http://hillsborough.extension.ufl.edu Maintenance on microirrigation systems includes checking plants for over- or under-watering, inspecting and cleaning filters, flushing out the main poly line at least once a year and making sure plants have adequate numbers of emitters for their root size. Adjust spray patterns as plants grow. A monthly walk through your landscape beds will allow you to make adjustments or repairs as needed that could be due to lawnmowers, weed eaters or garden critters such as armadillos leveling spray stakes. The advantages of using a microirrigation system include: Water is applied in gallons per hour (gph) vs. gallons per minute (gpm) from an in-ground irrigation system Evaporation and erosion are decreased Design, installation and use are simple Products are interchangeable among vendors Used as nurse system for new plantings The disadvantages of and solutions for using a microirrigation system include: Difficulty in detecting problems dont bury drip tubing under mulch Easy to over-irrigate -- use a timer! Emitter clogs if poor water quality if clogged, soak emitter in vinegar/water solution Initial cost of set-up attend a water-wise workshop (one time only) and receive a free microirrigation starter kit If you have an in-ground irrigation system, you can retrofit that system to microirrigation for your landscape beds. Microirrigation cannot be used on turfgrass. Please refer to our Fact Sheet on Retrofitting an In-ground Irrigation System.
