Water and grass
As the grass was suffering a bit with this dry spell we are having, decided last week to install a 100 Mtr 25mm MDPE pipe in the bed of the stream (which is at a trickle now) it is about 50 Mtrs short of the stream head on my property but has sufficient fall to give a continuous what I would call a slow hose pipe flow, curiosity got the better of me so stuck a 1 Ltr jug under it and it took just 20 seconds to fill so by my reckoning that is nearly 1000 gallons a day, just move the hose around the grass area and here a bit of gutter as the hose is too short

Another view of my grass which was not very green a few days ago, Rick

Careful Rick, I’m sure some snowflake interfering tin pot authorities that we seem to have in abundance in our country will take a dim view of that.
Great idea though |
