December Gardening Checklist for Northern California Gardeners

The Ultra Stake with 12" Riser (10 Pack) is the ultimate support system for your micro-irrigation sprays. Designed to elevate micro-sprinklers and misters above foliage, this assembly ensures unobstructed water distribution and maximizes coverage area. It is perfect for flower beds, ground cover, and landscaped gardens where plants might otherwise block a ground-level emitter.
Each unit comes pre-assembled with a sturdy ground stake, a 12-inch semi-rigid riser, and flexible lead tubing with a transfer barb. This "ready-to-install" design allows you to quickly connect to your mainline tubing and thread in your preferred spray head without fumbling with multiple small parts.

Step 1: Attach the Sprayer
Take your chosen 10-32 threaded micro-sprinkler or mister (sold separately) and screw it into the top of the 12" rigid riser. Hand-tighten only.
Step 2: Punch the Mainline
Use a 1/4" punch tool to create a hole in your 1/2" or 3/4" poly mainline tubing near the plant you wish to water.
Step 3: Connect the Barb
Insert the 1/4" transfer barb (located at the end of the Ultra Stake's flexible tubing) into the punched hole. Listen for a "snap" to ensure it is seated.
Step 4: Stake it Down
Push the stake firmly into the soil, ensuring the riser is vertical. Adjust the flow/pattern on your sprayer if applicable.
Verify this stake fits your components:
