Garden Watering - Summer Essentials

Watering the garden in summer can be a bit of a chore “ especially when the weather is dry, and you need to be out there every single day.

Having the right equipment will make all the difference - saving you loads of time and effort in the process. As part of our summer watering series, here are 6 summer watering products youll definitely want to consider.

Water Tank

Conserve and save water in your garden with a water butt or rainwater tank. An ideal, environmentally friendly solution for filling your watering can during the dry summer months, they are great for positioning next to your outbuildings or greenhouses, especially in areas away from your mains supply.

Garden Sprinklers

If your lawn has a tendency to look a little parched and brown during the summer months, then a garden sprinkler, like these models from Hozelock are the best way to bring it back to its green best. Sprinklers come in a wide range of different styles, from simple, static sprinklers, to more advanced gear driven, oscillating and rotating units. With the right unit, youll be able to provide your lawn, beds and borders with all the water they need at the turn of a tap.

Garden hose

A good hosepipe is absolutely essential. When picking a hose, it pays to go for a quality model, like one with a helix pattern construction, as cheaper hoses are likely to split or burst more easily. Youll also want make sure you choose one thats long enough to reach the far corners of your garden. At Keen Gardener, we stock high quality hoses from Claber in lengths up to 50m, long enough for all but the very largest of outdoor spaces.

Hose reel

A hose cart or reel will make storing and transporting your hose easier, whilst protecting the hosepipe from damage and keeping your garden neat and tidy. There are loads of different types to choose from, including wall mounted units, portable carts, and simple reels. When choosing a reel, make sure its big enough to house your hose, and look out for units with features like easy turn handles and tangle prevention for maximum convenience.

Spray gun

Youll be amazed at just how much difference the right hose nozzle or spray gun will make to your watering. There are nozzles with a full range of different patterns, including jets, cones, roses, fans and mists “ but youll probably want to invest in a single, adaptable spray gun with multiple settings. The Hozelock Ultra 14 and the Claber Multifunction Pistol are both great choices.

Automatic Watering Systems

If youve got a large garden, then it may be worth setting up an automatic watering system “ it will save you hours of watering every single day!
