Green Solution: Make your own soaker hose.

Punch holes in a worn hose with a nail

Put that old trashed hose to good use.

There’s always a time where a sprinkler isn’t going to water efficiently an area. Let’s face it, we all have a hose lying around that we’re tripping over. Here’s a great way to save money and put it to good use.  Find a nice hard surface area, grab your hammer, consult with your dog as to where a nice stick may be. No wait, that’s what I would do.  My dog is responsible for all the stick monitoring. If you don’t have a dog I am sure you know where there’s a stick. Anyway, find a stick that you can lodge into the end of the water hose. Make sure it’s a tight fit. Then all you have to do is perforate the hose with a sharp nail. This way you put an old hose to good use and conserve water all at the same time. Now if I could keep my dog away from obsessing about that stick.
