I can’t emphasize this enough. I mean, I’m using the GardenGrid watering system and an Orbit automated timer to water my 8 raised bed. So the intensive watering problem is solved.

Automatically planting the seeds? I can take it or leave it.

But the really intensive work is pulling those extraordinarily hardy weeds and pest control.

The cost of this thing at nearly $3000 including taxes is just too high for effectively an automated watering system that is easily solved at HomeDepot and the GardenGrid.
