Unit price per100m roll of LeakyPipe; LP12L to extend Hedge Kits.
It’s slow porosity is designed for sub-surface use. So after you’ve seen it working, cover it with soil, mulch or well-rotted manure. You can "plant" it at the same time as you plant your Hedge plants. It actually works better that way!
Especially designed porosity to ensure slow, even watering further along lengths of LeakyPipe. Matches porosity of Hedge Watering LeakyPipe® LP12L @ 1litre/metre/hour.
It is the Original Leaky Pipe® Hedge Watering Porous Rubber Soaker Hose.
Specifically Designed and Made Here For The Assured Watering, Establishment and Fast Growing of Hedge Plantings and similar, long-carry applications.
A 100metre roll of LeakyPipe® LP12L porous rubber hose. This LeakyPipe® is specifically manufactured by us to carry water further and water at a low rate, working up to 100metres from the hose connection. Just lay on the soil, see it work, then cover with mulch or hoe into the topsoil. It is for Sub-surface installation where sweated water moves from its porous wall, upwards as well as outwards from the Pipe. It will last for years. We have installations in excess of twenty years
This roll is suitable for adding an additional 100m to your Hedge Watering Kit. It has a lower watering rate than the standard LP12H pipe and shouldn't be used to extend 'normal leak' LeakyPipe®.
Ideal for watering in new hedge planting, ensuring rapid establishment and fast growing-on. Extend watering times to promote Saturation Conditions if required.
If your hedge branches or is an unusual shape, T connectors will allow the LeakyPipe® to branch as well to follow the route of your hedge. Lay it near the plants - within 30-50cm as the water will spread laterally.
LeakyPipe® works by wicking water into the soil it contacts and therefore works best if hoed into the topsoil or covered by mulch.
Generally LeakyPipe® only needs to be placed on just one side of the planting, unless the plants are large (e.g. over 1m tall when planted) in which case we suggest a length of LeakyPipe® is laid on either side of the root ball.
The leak rate of this LeakyPIpe® (LP12L) will allow watering for 100m from a typical domestic water source. You can water through several lengths of LeakyPipe® at once (each max 100m long) and a typical water source will generally water up to 500m cumulative length of this LeakyPipe.
