I put this video together to share with those of you who are following my greenhouse adventure this past year. This is my first spring with the greenhouse. It is lots of work keeping up with the watering and maintaining my own landscaping and gardening. I am loving the work and can’t wait to enjoy the products in the summer out in my gardens. Please leave me a comment if you have any questions about owning your own greenhouse. If you garden it is truly an adventure of a life time!

DIY automatic garden / greenhouse watering system

I’ve been using this system for the past 25years and found it more reliable than using batteries or electric power, when I first made them I turned the valves out on a lathe and used magnets to latch the valve on and off. But now use plastic water timers with the clockwork removed and a balance arm on a short up-stand, this operates in the same way as the magnets and gives the arm a definite on and off position when it swings over center.

Watering Your Greenhouse

The two most important things to consider when using a greenhouse are Greenhouse Ventilation, and Watering. If your plants are not kept well watered in the heat of your greenhouse then they will provide low yields at best, and will die at worst. Therefore attention must be paid to how you will water your greenhouse plants regularly, even if you are not at home for example when you are away on holiday.

Crops in the greenhouse will always need more water than those outside the greenhouse. Apart from the fact that rain does not fall in the greenhouse, the atmosphere is usually much hotter inside the greenhouse and soil will dry out much faster.

Many of the irrigation options used outside in the garden are also valid inside the greenhouse, for example, using a watering can or spraying the plants with a hosepipe. However if water is left sitting on leaves rather than down on the soil and near the roots, it does not do the plants any good and can lead to the proliferation of mould and mildew.
