Hozelock for holidays – automatic watering systems for when you’re away
Summer is one of the busiest times of year for any keen gardener, and with the temperatures high, keeping your plants well watered needs to be high on your daily to-do list.
It’s also holiday season – and there’s little worse than returning from a lovely trip away with the family only to find that your beloved garden plants have wilted and died.
In this post, we take a look at some of the different automatic watering systems from Hozelock – perfect for keeping your plants well watered when you’re not around.
Hozelock Automatic Watering Systems for Every Garden
Whilst you can create your own system from scratch buy purchasing components separately (check out our handy hozelock automatic watering guide for further information), the simplest and most affordable way is to buy a readymade system.
These kits come supplied with everything needed to set up your own system including timers, pressure reducers, pipeline and hose connectors. They are quick and easy to install, and come in a range of sizes, including:
In addition to pots and containers, these pot systems can also be used to water borders, vegetable patches, hanging baskets and greenhouse plants – and come supplied with a selection of different clamps, connectors and fittings.
The Hozelock system is fully modular. If you’ve got a larger garden, you can also invest in extra components, like timers, connectors, pipeline and dripper fittings, which can be easily installed to extend your existing system.
Additional Watering Systems from Hozelock
Hozelock also offers a range of additional watering systems, including:
- Hozelock Universal Kit – perfect for watering borders, hedges and vegetable gardens
- Hozelock Micro Kit - ideal for looking after pots, containers and hanging baskets
These specialist systems can be connected together with your existing setup, or combined with a standalone water controller to provide automatic watering when you’re away on holiday.
The benefits of automatic watering
Automatic watering systems aren’t just for when you go on holiday - they can be used all year round to save you time and effort watering, so you can spend more time enjoying your garden.
In addition to saving you time and effort, using automatic watering systems will also help reduce the amount of water you use. In fact, drip watering systems like those from Hozelock are one of the most efficient ways of looking after your plants, and use around 90% less water than a traditional garden hose or spray gun.
