Week 40

October 3rd // Irrigation System Improvement

The students are installing the drip irrigation system today, which is going to greatly facilitate the watering actions in the greenhouse. Having every single plants connected to a drip line means when the irrigation is turned on, all plants on one bench are technically receiving the same amount of water.
It’s still important to assess the water needs of the plants every time to decide how long the irrigation needs to run, and for how many intervals.
