The manufacturer says it's also handy for picking up other kinds of nuts, as well as golf balls, small stones, and so on. You simply roll it around on the ground, and the nuts get caught up in the spring. Release the contents by loosening the spring. Water conservation is a hot topic in gardening circles, and many people are developing new ways to save water. Resembling a rain gauge, this device is filled with water and placed in the lawn or in a flower or vegetable garden.
Water then evaporates at the same rate as healthy turf grass of plants.
Check the gauge now and then to determine when you need to water. For instance, most plants need at least one inch of water a week, so as soon as the water level drops one inch, you know it's time to water. The bubbler converts a high-pressure stream of water into a gentle flow, allowing the soil to absorb water slowly and preventing wasteful runoff. Another gizmo redirects runoff rainwater and puts it to good use so it doesn't erode your garden. When attached to a gutter downspout, the perforated plastic unrolls automatically when it rains and gently waters nearby plants.
