An anon recommended a temporary solution to a cheap sprinkler system with a $5 timer but I can't find it edition.
I'm thinking of getting like 5 hoses for all my trees too
Anon other tips?

If you don't remove that overgrown tree before it gets bigger you'll be raped by arborist bills. Too many homeowners don't look up. It's only going to get worse but if nothing beneath matters much it could be an insurance paycheck.

If you fuck up and yank out a power line that could be inconvenient but isn't a disaster most of the time.

What are your plans when those branches break off? They will eventually and you do not have a choice in that matter. Do post when it happens.

I'll sell the house before it happens. Already had the most dangerous branches removed when I bought the place and it wasn't that much.

>buy a bag of 1" otekir ear clamps
>buy 1 hose attachment you can screw into one of the inline T's
>buy 3/4" irrigation nipple
>buy 1 hunter 5000 roter head
>Cut poly pipe into a square attached with the 90°'s
>cut two sides of the square and add a pipe to run to each side using the "T" fittings
>In the middle of your newly added middle pipe cut in your inline T.
>Attach nipple to hunter 5000 head
>Adjust for a full 360° spray. Use a number "3" nozzle (they come with the heads, so does a key for adjustments)
>now choose any side on your square frame to cut into and throw in another inline T.
>Add hose attachment and attach hose all the way go the bib
>Add a hose timer to set up automatic watering at your choosing
>easy full coverage cheap irrigation
I did this for a few years before I installed my own system. It works really well and cost about 20 bucks for all the parts

^That's as well as I could draw the design to give an example of what the instructions are. Use your imagination to connect all the corners, sprinkler head shown as the circle and the stem representing the hose.
