I use a hose attached sprinking system in my greenhouse so it will be a no brainer to install. I've been contemplating one for the garden, but first I need to finish burying the water line out to the garden. I have a bad feeling that it won't work well with a soaker hose and that I'll be better off grabbing a couple 60 gallon barrels from the local "barrel guy" and making a scoop for 60 gallon batches of fertilizer. -- Chris Dukes |

I spoke to Dan Gilmore, the president of the company (EZ-Flo Injection)
that manufactures those, and he acknowledged that the water that pushes the solution out of the tank will dilute the tank contents "to some degree", which means the delivered fertilizer concentration will dwindle as the tank empties. In lawn sprinkler applications, that's not a problem as the same area gets all of the nutrient anyway. If used through a hose, the early plants get the "right" dose, the later ones less. He did say that there is an "agitation dip tube" that can be removed to greatly reduce that tendency, as they have some patented technology to create an "invisible bladder" to minimize mixing. Their technical info looks like it's only an issue near the end: http://www.ezfloinjection.com/2-4.asp Ray Barkalow - First Rays LLC - www.firstrays.com Orchid Plants, Supplies, Equipment, Books Artwork, Free Services & Lots of Info! -----Original Message----- From: dusty ] Posted At: Monday, August 31, 2009 10:18 AM Posted To: rec.gardens.orchids Conversation: Speaking of feeding Subject: Speaking of feeding For the most part I'm lazy I mean all that caculating makes my brain hurt.

I know what you mean Dusty, about the brain hurting!!! *G* I like to keep
things simple. I have one & I love it. You can see the colour of the fert in the out going tube diluted. I start my watering in a different area or side of g/h each time. I put my measured fert in a tupperware shaker then pour it into the tank. Also cover the tank to protect from the uv rays? I have just started a regimen for my cyms with time release fert as they are heavy feeders. Cheers Wendy "dusty" wrote in message ...
