Rick - I do use those Y attachments. My biggest problem is that I only have 1 outdoor facet that I can use. The other two have the water filtered through our salt water softener system. So I can not use that water on any plants. Why they even did that is beyond me! Grrrr ..... I need to figure out how to run some PVC piping from that facet to the southwest and the northwest corners of my house to hook up my irrigation systems. I have too much hooked up now and it leaks on my water pump (which will eventually rust it)!

Also another dilemma I have ....

I have a vertical herb garden and am trying to figure out how to water all the plants using the 1/2" or probably 1/4" irrigation system. Any ideas?

Here is what the vertical herb garden structure looks like. There are 3 sections and it is installed in an "L" shape. It is basically in the middle of my backyard. I could hook-up with 1/4" to the main 1/2" irrigation line. But how do I water the plants from there?
