fredg: So you connected them so all barrels fill at the same time? Feb 6, 2023 7:34:37 GMT
fredg: I would have put the connections high so one barrel fills at a time and then overflows to the next. Feb 6, 2023 7:35:35 GMT
fredg: But I don't normally use the tap. I plunge fill the watering can. Feb 6, 2023 7:37:33 GMT
stevebooth: Barrels 2 and 3 are top overflow from the pump in barrel 1 to absorb the high initial flow volume, then the next seven are bottom linked, primarily as the holes at the bottom of the barrels existed, so I installed 1" tank connectors and linked them up. Feb 6, 2023 10:28:39 GMT
stevebooth: Inevitably time will tell, but they have been OK in previous years bottom linked, each barrel having a T piece gives 2/3 low point connections per barrel. So I need a test, where's the flippin rain when you need it? Feb 6, 2023 10:29:39 GMT *
fredg: Scotland Feb 6, 2023 11:04:03 GMT
stevebooth: :D Feb 6, 2023 11:36:40 GMT
stevebooth: Today I have large amounts of Sphagnum been disturbed, the blackbirds are getting started. Feb 7, 2023 16:35:29 GMT
rogerhardcastle: I have four butts connected together via their outlet taps using silicone rubber tubing and beer cellar tubing. You can buy the silicone tubing from model aircraft shops or online. I let all the butts fill up and the turn the taps off. Feb 7, 2023 20:43:54 GMT
rogerhardcastle: I turn the taps off as an insurance against a leak releasing water from the entire arrangement. Feb 8, 2023 11:37:47 GMT
stevebooth: Could do with some wet! Feb 18, 2023 17:41:43 GMT
stevebooth: Still could do with some wet. Feb 23, 2023 11:22:21 GMT
rogerhardcastle: Can anyone tell me where to get some LFS Sphagnum for a good price. Feb 27, 2023 22:20:15 GMT
stevebooth: Don't think there is a good price anymore Roger, ebay have live Welsh at £9.99/kg with free postage (how much water they leave in isn't mentioned) or dried 12L for £4.59 plus £1.99 postage Feb 28, 2023 10:10:07 GMT
stevebooth: Could do with some wet! Feb 28, 2023 10:10:25 GMT
fredg: Came back from up north on Sunday. The daffodils were wilting :-S Feb 28, 2023 17:45:56 GMT
stevebooth: winter draws on Mar 8, 2023 8:38:04 GMT
rogerhardcastle: I’ve ordered some stainless steel mesh on eBay to sieve small amounts of peat. It has 4 holes per 25mm and the wire is approx 1mm. The holes will be about 5.5mm. Mar 8, 2023 13:43:17 GMT
fredg: Woo hoo! I'm actually getting my hands dirty again Mar 18, 2023 18:58:53 GMT *
stevebooth: Great aint it!!!! Mar 20, 2023 9:53:05 GMT
