Rain BirdT63-100 Drip Irrigation 1/2" (0.634" OD) Blank Distribution Tubing, 100' Roll, Black

I grow my garden in Earthboxes and used this 1/2" tubing to deliver water to the boxes. Then used barbed connectors to 1/4" tubing to the filler of the boxes. This year I bought a punch tool and made the assembly so much easier.Other feedback says how it kinks and it does. Be patient when you unroll the tubing. Having it in the sunshine speeds up the uncurling.

DRIP IRRIGATION IS A PAIN TO GET ALL CONNECTED BUT VERY WORTH IT, AS LONG AS YOUR DOG DOESN'T TEAR IT UP, WHICH MINE DID, ENOUGH SO THAT I HAD TO ORDER THIS PIPE, FITTINGS, FENCING WIRE, AND SPEND A DAY BUILDING A FENCE, AS WELL AS REBUILDING DRIP IRRIGATION SYSTEM TO WATER TOMATOES, BIRDBATH, SO NOW I'M GROWING THINGS AGAIN.

This is my third roll of this stuff. I like to garden but don't like to manually water. So with this tubing, a manifold for distribution, a few Rainbird emitters and a timer, I get a self watering garden! The tubing lasts for years I buy more just to increase the size of my garden patch.

I've used this tubing on a number of installations as I recommend to my friends and family to get drip irrigation systems in their gardens- as I have. It's definitely better for the plants. I've run hundreds of feet of this, along with 1/4" extensions and various emitters. I am thoroughly pleased with it. I find that using needle nose pliers to expand it a bit, and the 1/4" when inserting a connector, emitter etc. really helps. I'd also recommend letting it sit out in the sun for a while to soften before placing it and using garden staples to hold it in place. The only "knock" I would give it is that the walls are a bit thick making it difficult to attach the pressure control, filter and adapter pieces. The hose works very, very well otherwise.

Great product, great price and quick shipment!

This item was as described and a good value for the price. I would order again.

One of the best purchases I have made in a long time. Here in central Texas we have been in a drought for about five years. It has gotten so bad that there is a no watering at all order in effect. I live at a lake and the past several months have brought our lake high enough that we should be able to water intermittently. Micro drip irrigation is a concept that I have considered for many years and this year I decided to buy this for myself for mother’s day. I have an in ground sprinkler system that I have not been able to use at all for two years now. Even if I decided to turn it on, the neighbors would not be very happy with me nor will that water company. I currently use vegetables and some flowers as my landscaping. There are several reasons that this kit is a good starting point for all your watering needs.1. This system is versatile to a point that once established you can change where the water goes, add to the system, make changes where ever you need, and is what I call idiot proof. Even if you make a mistake, it can easily be corrected with little effort.2. Affordability. Even though I have made several purchases to add to my original starter’s kit, I still have less than one hundred dollars in my system.3. All your watering needs are taken care of with little effort. The ½ soaker type hose can also be tapped into to add additional watering connections. The ½ Inch black hose carries the water wherever you need it. There are drips that can be set up at the base of the plant so that just the plant gets the water and no water is wasted. Micro sprayers in a half circle and full circle can cover a larger area all at one time and so on. There are so many options and the pieces needed are low cost and almost full proof.4. Not only can others not see that I am watering, except for the fact that my grass may be dying but my vegetables, herbs, and flowers are growing like crazy, the amount of water required in minimal. Not a drop of water is wasted. Turn the water on and let it do its thing for thirty minutes or so depending on the amount of surface area that you watering, then just turn the water off.I have doubted some of my purchases in the past but this is not one of them. I will continue to add to my micro drip even after the drought. I never have to worry if I missed plants while watering or that I might not have laid down enough water.In addition to my original kit I have purchased the 1/2 black tubing 100' four times now, not because the other went bad but that I have extended the watering system to my entire garden and landscaping. This tubing is tough and does the job that needs to be done without any trouble. I will continue purchasing this product especially from this seller and at cheaper price than others.
