Mornings, at base of plants every other day with fair weather. When it's hot I water everyday. I don't water the tops of any plants but onions.
I believe that this is a practical world and that I can count only on what I earn. Therefore I believe in work, hard work. -George Petrie (1945)

I have used drip hoses and sprinklers; sprinklers it is for me. Early morning watering and some late to mid afternoon when temps ride high!
Be kind to one another and tell the ones you love that you love them often. We never know what tomorrow will bring.

We use soaker hoses on a timer in our raised beds, they run at dark and just after daylight, daily.
The orchard has an irrigation system with a .5 gpm emitter for each tree (50 trees). It's all operated manually, depending on how much rain the trees have gotten. If there's an inch or more of rain in any given week, the system stays off. If we go a week with little or no rain, it's turned on for an hour or so. The way I usually do it is to run every other row for an hour, then switch them for an hour. That way my pump isn't having to dump 25 gpm for all that time. It'll deliver 35+ gpm to the irrigation system, but why tax the pump if I don't have to?

I've got some real similar. I unscrewed the sprinkler head off the spike and put a 4' galvanized nipple in between them, then zip-tied the whole thing to T-posts. Before we installed the irrigation system in the orchard, we had 2 rows of 4 sprinklers each operating in overlapping 180° arcs, all connected with 2 hoses feeding them. Took some adjusting to get all the arcs set just right, but once they were it all worked great for the year and a half that we used them up there. I left them in place for a while, "just in case", when we finished installing the irrigation...I just took them up and pulled the posts last time I was home.

drip hoses for me, I ain't watering all the ground out there, only that right at the plant bases.
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....
