Best Garden Watering Products

When it comes to gardening tools only the best will do, there is nothing worse than a fork bending or a hose kinking or a fitting blowing off and soaking you.

Usually a good product will save you money in the long run as they last for a long time.

I have made mistakes in the past buying cheap stuff and living to regret it.

One thing I have never scrimped on are garden hoses, I hate hoses that kink and burst, that’s why I have for the past 20 years only bought Gardena products, and yes I am still using them today.

One of the hoses I am using at the moment is a ‘super-flex kink resistant 6, which I think would be at the top of the Gardena range, it’s a great hose and well worth a few extra dollars.

The same applies for hose fittings, when I go to our local hardware store I do not look anywhere else but Gardena and they are trouble free and do not come off the hose unlike some other brands.

In some places in our garden I need two hose outlets and fortunately Gardena make a conversion that fits onto your tap and gives you two outlets, believe me it’s very handy.

Often when watering our garden I wonder just how much water am I using? Well Gardena have another great product which fits between your hose and spray gun (Gardena of course)

 that tells you exactly how much water you are using, it’s called a ‘water smart flow meter’ it shows total per day, per watering cycle and even per season. I must admit I received a shock after watering the garden for a day; it made me a little more careful in my water consumption.

I also have an auto watering system and some sprinklers that I will review later; I have no doubt that they will be the highest quality.

I forgot to mention that all Gardena products are made in Europe and come with a guarantee, for instance the hose has a 30 year guarantee which is pretty awesome to think my hose will last me until I am 99 years old.
