Questions & Answers
With this tubing, emitters are positioned where you need them so you do not have to worry about that. Toro 53640 is a tubing with an emitter that looks nice wherever it will fit. My recommendation would be for those who do a long run to use 1/2 inch tubing.
There's no doubt that it is. I connected two plants to the line as it was under ground, and then the remaining two lines were connected to each other as it was above ground. A total of 14 hooks are used for each type of plant.

Our desert gets hot in the summer since we get so much sun there. If you did not warm up my tubing during the years, it would deteriorate into brittle and soft pieces. We're going to run out of this stuff right now! The best part is that it doesn't feel uncomfortable in the cold. For soften cream, simply use one or two glassfuls of hot water. That will remove any bitterness. To prepare it properly, I used hot water in the winter or the colder morning when I wasn't used to it. Its being tough makes the device stay connected and stay sealed once the sun goes down, which I like to think about. LOVE it. The year has so far gone by without me having a single issue. My lines, including those areas in direct sunlight, as well as those parts that are in the dark, have all lived this first year, and thus far it has not affected my water bill. I use this in connection with my main 1/2 inch tubing line and standard 1/4-inch pipe.
For the cons, here is a little info: Almost no vendor carries it. Therefore, you can't purchase it. These are the pros: This product is excellent. I have used this line over the past twenty years in Nevada and California. Whenever I look at the line again and again, new nothing in it has disappointed me like the previous one has. In winter, it doesn't harden, and as a result the fittings won't pop off, which is what some other lines can cause. A user-friendly product line with a great deal of versatility. If you bury it or leave it exposed, there is no harm in doing so. Both can be done as well. Whether you choose Lowes, Home Depot, True Value, or Amazon, drip products will all work together with this system.
My yard contains about 400 feet of these tubing. I dug some under landscaping gravel and mulch, and another one in a flowerbed. I am pretty sure that the tubing that you get from our company is a very high quality material. Several years from now I believe it will perform very well. I ran the smallest tubing I could find, but it never did get done. My dozen hydrangeas do not get affected by this tubing.
It is far better to pay a premium than to purchase cheap, brittle cheap tubing from big-box stores for 1/2 inch sprinkler tubing. In terms of flexibility and durability, the drip head was one of the things I found easiest to use with this product and lasts for a long time.
Although it's a great idea, there's a problem ordering drip connectors. You will need to use 14 to find out what the package advises you to use. It looks like they are part of the hose, however, you don't see them online. In addition, shops around you don't carry it.
In my drip lines, I have never failed to use this tubing.
fine - Other sun-resistant colors don't beat this one.
Despite its glossy black color, the Blue stripe is extremely stiff. Using lighter to heat the end of the tubing first makes it very difficult to install a barbed fitting. Considering the static nature of the layout, this probably works. Put the software on and forget about it. Having a dynamic system built with plants has limitations that i find unacceptable in my tubing.
