Designing a garden micro irrigation system requires understanding your space and plant needs. Begin by measuring the area and noting plant types—delicate herbs may need different flow rates than sturdy shrubs. Choose between drippers, micro-sprinklers, or soaker hoses based on coverage. Use flexible tubing that can snake around plants, and opt for a modular design to add or remove components as needed. Position emitters 6–12 inches from plant bases to target roots. Include a pressure regulator to prevent overwatering in small emitters, and a filter to stop debris. For aesthetics, hide tubing under mulch or along garden edges. A well-designed micro-irrigation system ensures every plant receives precise hydration, promoting growth while conserving water.
