Sounds like a great idea, but it wouldn't work for me. I have 2 spigots with 4 splits on each one. Not only do I need to turn the splits on and off according to where I want to water, but I need to move the hose 30 feet twice to get all the plants watered. I use to reel in the hoses, but now I just get off the mower and move the hose to a spot that has already been done.
