Even an inexperienced gardener like me suspected veggies might have a tough time growing in gravel, so I built three 4x8 raised beds. Solar water pumps. Several aspects of a PV pump system are key in determining the system costs: a) size of the system.

The high initial capital costs of the PV array is the major barrier to high penetration rates of the use of solar water pumps (Firatogly & Yesilata, 2004).

The Gardener's Spot: Using Milk Jugs For Watering Your Garden

To me the easiest and best way to water your garden is to set up a drip irrigation system with an automatic timer. But what if you do not have that option? Are you planning to just water your garden by hand? If so, a great option is to bury a milk jug with holes drilled in it next to the plant. *Note: the reason we use milk jugs is because we do not drink pop, but the milk jugs can only be use for one maybe two years then they start breaking apart and need to be thown away. So here is a picture of how an where to drill holes in the jug. Make sure to put some holes in the bottom for full drainage of the water. Dig a deep enough for most of the jug to be under ground and put it only a few inches away from the plant. And cover. I like to put the jug in first, then plant the transplant next to the jug. My kids like to find all of the worms.
