Micro Irrigation

Micro Irrigation, or most commonly referred to as Drip Irrigation, is the combination of several types of low-pressure, low-volume water delivery systems. The difference between the three main types, (Drip, Trickle, and Spray), are the differences of the emitters used.

Micro Irrigation originated from commercial growers and farmers but with water
conservation issues in the world today, Micro Irrigation has "dripped" its way into the lives of the residential world by means of flower beds, potted plants, and home gardens. By keeping the plant's roots moist without saturation, less water is used with more conventional techniques. These systems are by far
proven to be the best way to maximize the water resources and get the best turn out from plants and vegetables. These systems can also be configured to mist and provide humidity.
