Help choosing drip line irrigation for my hedgerow
Posted by DownSouthDave on 9/29/26 at 3:42 pm
I am going to plant 125 1 gallon camelias to form a new hedgerow.
The hedgerow is u shaped, say 200' for each leg, 600' total.
I had a drip setup in mind with poly hose and branch lines, tapping the branch lines with 2 emitters/plant. Main line from the spigot to center of the U, then branch lines headed out to the ends of the hedgerow.
AI suggested a dripline with pressure compensating emitters already built in, at predetermined spacing. Seems its a much simpler and easier install. Downside is i would be watering the space between. I guess thats not a problem as they grow.
Any recommendations from the board? Any brands I should look at? Brands i should avoid? Where is the best place to buy this stuff?

They are doing quite a bit of data center work, projects all over the country.
Its probably a good way to get started, lots of hours and lots of exposure in a short time. If you're willing to work hard and travel, there is definitely opportunity.
It's a different world than their typical industrial projects.
ETA: Each data center isnt necessarily a long term gig. Even then, it depends on what scope they have on each building. It could be everything from underground and build out or just a portion. They could have multiple buildings or just one. Depending on the size of the campus, work will be going on for quite some time. If you want to stay at that site, it is probably easy if you switch outfits to whomever has the work.

Its not as nice as it seems. Its fine, but doesn't lift the deck super high. You still have to get under it. I've seen mowers with hydraulic or electric tilt decks that seem to go 90 degrees.

Suprised by all the love.
I thought the last thing we needed there was a $20 poboy shop. I feel like they have a super limited menu and hours and the food doesnt justify the price.
Good luck to them, but I dont see how they make it. Not sure if they purchased the location or not. It was listed for 900k when Genes closed down, and they put a few dollars into it. Seems like it takes a lot of bread pudding to cover that note.
I miss being able to drive my tractors to get diesel.

Ate there Wednesday. Food was very good and they did a great job with the interior.
Little confusing though, our server said the owner wasnt the lady who owned the food truck. Our server was from blue iguana and said it was the same owners as there.

Bute the bullet and buy a party barge.
If you think you might fish, you probably won't. Party barges are well suited for...partying.

I had a friend call him a few weeks ago. I think he was looking for a 4' net and I want to say it was around $100.

Tim Wade makes custom nets. They are very well liked. You can talk to him and he can make whatever mesh size and lead weight you need.
I think something that small would be around $100.
You can find his contact info on thehulltruth and other forums.
But like others have said, no reason to spend that much for a kid to throw...especially if it will be in areas where they can get hung.
