My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

    I am using drip irrigation. The type I prefer is Agrifim ¼" Dura-Flo Jr dripperline. The line is clog resistant, easy to install and gives precise watering. It's high quality assures even watering for the vegetables and seedlings

    Great garden. should the drip system be installed before installing the vegetable beds or after?

    In raised beds, like the ones shown above, I install the drip irrigation before the planting. I no longer use the soaker hose that was used in this garden. I prefer ¼" tubing with emitters at 6" spacing. This gives the most flexibility.
