DIY Watering Pipe

Do you want to make watering your garden easier? This 5-minute DIY watering pipe makes watering much more efficient, getting water down to where it’s needed.

YOU NEED:
400mm x 50mm PVC pipe
50mm PVC end cap
Superglue

How to make a DIY watering pipe

  1. Put some superglue around the inside of the end cap and slide it onto the pipe. 
  2. Drill 6mm holes around the pipe for 250mm from the bottom. (You can drill the holes for less that 250mm, depending on how deep you want to water.)
  3. Bury the pipe in the middle of a pot or garden. 
  4. Fill it up with water and the water will slowly soak out into the soil to where the roots are.
