Next, make ridges and measure the length to know how many pvc pip you are buying, NOTE PVC pipe can be substitute with flat hose but am not going there now. Am using 2 inch pipe as an example, and there is two type light and strong. If you can afford strong buy it. |

This is the function of socket, but you will not need it if your system is new, unless you have burst pipe. All new pipe (one side) come with socket mouth.

I'm looking at pumping water to my farm 400m away, which pumping machine should I go for? |
Re: Irrigation System Installation And Kit by Farmerakinloye6(m): 8:51am On Nov 17, 2020 |
tpben:Any pumping machine will do.. it hose that will suffer it, you will need to buy 400 meters hose. Below pix, some are even 700 to 800 meters from water.

Re: Irrigation System Installation And Kit by Farmerakinloye6(m): 11:54am On Nov 25, 2020 |
tpben:to my knowledge there is 3 type of flat hose; blue hose@100meters 18k, black hose@100 meters 36k and green hose 29k here in akure. At the moment am using green hose because it is thick and can also serve black hose function. 1 Share
