Eco Bag Benefits
To survive, newly planted trees and shrubs need an adequate, controlled water supply directed to reach the root system. In many situations, the water supply must continue over the first few vital summer months - but watering by hand can be a time-consuming money-wasting exercise.
Adequate, Controlled Water Supply
THE ECO BAG is an automatic drip watering system costing considerably less than replacing trees and shrubs which fail through inadequate watering. The unique system consists of a plastic container which drips water into the roots of a plant or tree over a long period. It has a long life time and will establish more than just one tree. It has been developed in dry areas and is now fully proven after an exhausting three-year period, to provide an adequate controlled water supply to establish trees.
BENEFITS
- Provides the ultimate in
moisture conservation where water costs and transportation
are critical.
- Eliminates evaporation from around the root
zone while still allowing rain to enter. Automatically waters
trees and shrubs.
- ECO bags provide the perfect insulation
around the root zone, warming in the cool weather and cooling
in the hot weather.
- Enables trees and shrubs to be planted
at any time of the year and to grow through summer.
- Saves
the enormous costs of plumbing and irrigation involved in
orchard establishment/expansion. (Where underground moisture
is available for the tree's eventual use).
- Holds approximately
20 litres of water, lasting from 3 to 4 weeks. Can be easily
refilled if necessary.
- The flow of liquid can be varied to
suit the size of the plant or length of time water is required
to last.
- Provides for years, the perfect grass and weed control
around plants. Filters any type of water and allows the addition
of fertilizer.
- Provides excellent support for small trees
and shrubs.
- Easily hidden, if desired, under mulch (wood chips etc.)
