Car’s in the shop getting new shocks and the shop is right next door to Wal-Mart. That will be a convenient stop for the timer when we pick up the car. (OMG — those shocks are expensive — $600!) So, when I pick out a timer, do you have any suggestions on what I should look for?
Well it just depends on what your needs will be. I bought an Orbit timer that has the capability of timiming four different hoses. It looks like this:
It comes with the Programmer unit the four hose splitter and two control valves. My garden area is split into two sections and the two control valves is all I need. I have a regular hose hooked up to one of the free faucets so I can water manually when I need to do my watermelon patch and to clean up equipment.
They also have analog timers where you set times with a dial.
