Top 5 Trends Taking Over Gardens in 2026
Mar 16th 2026
Watering potted plants, greenhouse containers, and patio planters by hand is time-consuming and risks under- or over-watering. The Small Nursery Irrigation Kit is the easiest way to automatically water up to 4 tables with 8 pots on each table with zero hassle. Designed for the everyday gardener and backyard nursery enthusiast, this complete package comes with everything you need to easily distribute water directly from your faucet to the base of each individual plant.
This easy-to-install DIY kit promotes healthier root systems using individual Pot Streamers, which deliver water evenly to the soil without soaking the foliage. The system is incredibly flexible—simply run the mainline tubing along your pots and tap in exactly where you need a dripper. Our push-and-twist "Easy Loc" fittings require no glue or special clamps, making installation a breeze. Whether you are growing tomatoes in buckets or managing a small display of decorative planters, this starter kit is designed to scale and can be fully expanded as your garden grows.
We have pre-calculated the components so you don't have to guess what parts fit together. Just snap the parts in place and turn on the water. Because most gardeners prefer to keep their hose available for other tasks, we highly recommend adding a Brass Y-Splitter to your order so you can run your automatic irrigation system and your standard garden hose simultaneously.
This system connects easily to any standard outdoor hose faucet.
Step 1: The Header (Faucet Assembly)
Simply screw the Filter directly onto your faucet, then attach the Pressure Regulator, and finally the Easy Loc Female Hose Start. This complete unit is commonly referred to as the "Header."
Step 2: Lay the Mainline
Run the 1/2" Mainline Tubing from the Header to and around your collection of pots or your nursery benches. Use the Easy Loc Tee or Elbow to route the tubing where it needs to go. Close the end of the line with a simple Figure 8 End.
Step 3: Connect to the Pots
Use the 1/2" Easy loc x 1/2" Female Pipe tee and the PVC nipples to connect the Octa-Bubbler to the mainline. Next connect 1/4" micro tubing going to the Octa-Bubbler.
Step 4: Place the Emitters
At the end of the 1/4" Micro Tubing inside the pot, attach your Pot Streamer Sprayer. Push the stake into the soil near the root zone of the plant. Repeat this process for each container.

Is this kit easy to install?
Yes! This kit is specifically packaged for straightforward DIY installation. It requires no glue and no specialized tools other than the provided hole punch. Most users can set up their patio or nursery space in under an hour.
Can I connect this to a timer?
Absolutely. You can attach any standard hose faucet timer (such as our Galcon Bluetooth timers) directly to the faucet before attaching the filter and regulator assembly.
Does this work for varying pot sizes?
Yes. The provided micro tubing allows you to reach pots regardless of their size or height. For extremely large pots, you might want to place two emitters in a single pot to ensure even water coverage.
Is it expandable?
Yes. This system is designed to grow with your plant collection. You can safely add another zone to add more Pot Stream sprayers and up to 50' of additional Mainline Tubing to water more pots. Easily extend your reach with these components:
"Perfect for my patio buckets"
"I have about 20 fabric pots growing peppers on my back deck and watering them took forever. This DripWorks kit had the perfect amount of sprayers. The mainline feels like real commercial tubing, not the flimsy plastic from the big box hardware stores."
- u/PepperHead99, via r/HotPeppers
"Saved my greenhouse plants"
"I bought the small nursery kit when I built my 10x12 greenhouse. Hooked it up to a Galcon timer and I haven't lost a single plant to drying out since. The instructions were crystal clear and everything pushed together without tools."
- Marcus T., Google Reviews
"A Game-Changer for My Nursery"
"I've noticed a significant improvement in the health of my plants since I installed the irrigation kit. My plants are growing faster and stronger, and I'm using less water overall. I highly recommend this kit to anyone who has a small nursery or garden."
