Garden Spray - For Low Pressures

[Ludwig Venter]

I am so jealous when I see the neighbours watering their gardens with a full blast mediocre sprayer.... for some reason.... I have no pressure and have been experimenting with different sprayers to find the best for my conditions.... here are some that I've tried.....

Very old and reasonably effective.... covers a wide area, but only efficient at the edges

My wife likes this one doing circular areas, but IMO the areas are too small.....

replica of the first one... but for some reason.... the pressure would not make it move

This one covers a wide area, but as soon as my neighbour turns on his water.... it fails to swerve

New one I got last week, but does not even move under low pressure....

This one I got today and is more efficient than any of the others with respct to area covered, but has to be left in one spot for a very long time.....

Then... of course there are the holes in the hosepipe, which are consistant and covers the smaller areas in the background....

Do you have a recommendation on an effective spray with low water pressures

I can't even find a photo of one like our old one. It was really simple and light so didn't need much pressure to move it. Don't know how good it was at watering the garden but I loved playing in it as a kid!

Sorry I can't be of more help.

Probably a silly question but have you ever looked into why you have such low pressure through your taps, especially when your neighbour turns on his taps yours diminishes that doesn't sound good.

I have since replaced the feed piping from the main source to my first and second tap in my yard (some 70 meters of polycop piping) and what a difference!!!.... I can even stand still under the shower and get wet all over - (please do not try to picture this), but yes... seems like that was the source of my problem.

All of these sprays are now super efficient, and I use them all for different applications. The problem is solved.

Save water and urinate on the grass!

Or go one further and urinate on yourself for a shower...
