The Netafim PC Spray Stakes offer the ultimate, commercial-grade solution for nurseries, greenhouses, and extensive container gardens. Designed to deliver water and fertilizer with absolute precision, these Pressure Compensating (PC) stakes feature a unique, downward-angled spray pattern that ensures water stays entirely within the pot, eliminating soil wash-out and costly water waste. To build a complete system, these stakes pair perfectly with a Netafim Dripper Assembly (sold separately) to deliver flawlessly uniform hydration to every single container, regardless of elevation changes.
Built from highly durable, UV-protected materials, these spray stakes effortlessly handle harsh agricultural nutrient injection and demanding greenhouse climates. They are available in both single-sided and double-sided (two-sided) spray patterns to accommodate different pot sizes and root zone configurations. Furthermore, the stakes are distinctly color-coded for instant flow rate identification, ensuring your sprawling setup remains organized. Operating cleanly between 22 and 55 PSI, they require a standard 120-mesh irrigation filter to protect their fine spray nozzles from debris and clogging.

Build your container irrigation system quickly and efficiently.
Step 1: Lay Your Mainline
Run a solid 1/2" or 3/4" polyethylene mainline over your nursery benches or along the base of your potted plants. Ensure the system is regulated between 22 and 55 PSI.
Step 2: Insert Dripper Assemblies
Use a standard irrigation punch tool to create a hole in the mainline tubing. Press the barbed end of a Netafim Dripper Assembly firmly into the punched hole.
Step 3: Connect the Stake
Take the free end of the micro-tubing attached to the Dripper Assembly and push it securely over the barbed nipple located on the top of the Netafim PC Spray Stake.
Step 4: Position in the Pot
Press the spray stake firmly into the soil of the container. If using a single-sided stake, place it near the edge spraying inward. If using a double-sided stake, place it near the center of the pot.
Does this product include the tubing and emitter?
No, this product listing is for the Spray Stake only.
To create a complete, functioning unit, you must separately purchase a Netafim Dripper Assembly, which contains the actual PC button emitter and the micro-tubing that connects the mainline to the stake.
Should I choose a Single-Sided or Double-Sided stake?
Single-sided stakes are designed to be placed near the edge of the pot, spraying water directly inward toward the stem. They are excellent for small to medium containers.
Double-sided stakes spray water in two opposite directions. They are meant to be placed near the center of larger pots or grow bags to ensure the entire root zone receives adequate moisture.
Do I need a pressure regulator for these stakes?
Yes, these PC stakes require a strict operating pressure between 22 and 55 PSI to properly actuate the internal diaphragm and spray uniformly.
If your pressure is too low, the stakes will simply dribble instead of spraying. If the pressure is too high, the micro-tubing may blow off the barbs. A 30 or 40 PSI pressure regulator is highly recommended.
Can I use these with fertilizer injectors?
Absolutely! Netafim PC Spray Stakes are constructed from heavily UV-protected, highly chemical-resistant plastics.
They are designed specifically for the rigorous demands of commercial greenhouses and will flawlessly handle standard agricultural nutrient and fertilizer injection systems.
