Make the most of a soggy July Sunday by installing a simple drip irrigation system in your polytunnel—selecting tubing, laying out drip lines, and hooking up a time💦🌧️
It might be a soggy Sunday outside, but inside the polytunnel we’re cracking on with something essential — installing a brand-new irrigation system! In today’s episode, we talk through why irrigation is one of the best upgrades you can make to your allotment setup, especially when you want healthier plants, less manual watering, and more consistent growth. We’ll chat about the different types of irrigation you can use in a polytunnel, the benefits of drip lines, why timers are a lifesaver, and how automatic watering helps prevent drought stress during hot spells. Even on wet, miserable days, getting your irrigation sorted means smoother growing all season long. If you're planning to grow tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, or leafy greens in your tunnel next year, this episode will help you get ahead — even on the rainiest of Sundays! What irrigation setup do YOU use? Let me know — always love hearing new ideas for the polytunnel!
