Cinagro Plants Drip Irrigation Kit (20 Plants Kit) Watering Kit for Home Garden, Farming & Agriculture Purposes

The large number of mixed reviews had me hesitant in ordering this. When I finally did: 1. The product arrived one day before due date. 2. It was impeccably packed. 3. Each count was correct - including the manual. This is a little difficult to locate as it’s only a small card, printed on reverse of the packing slip. I also received the 20 extra red sprinklers as promised. 4. Installation was fairly easy - though it was done largely by a friend who is good with plumbing and repairs. 5. The item quality turned out to be very, very good. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 6. There were leakages at a couple of points where we had inserted the winged connectors in main line. These were fixed easily with a bit of twisting and some m-seal. But all things are not perfect. The red sprinklers can be regulated to some extent - but not like the shower in your bathroom. They keep dribbling or overshooting. However, we found a good use for these and snuck them between two half round pots, thus serving both pots with one pipe. See pic The black drippers can be unscrewed for cleaning - but you can’t stop them from dripping. So don’t try. Tips: 1. Don’t start off cutting this into pieces straightaway. Fit and test one line before taking up the rest. 2. Draw a rough plan of how the layout will be, where do you need T connectors and elbow bends and where all you need to regulate or stop the flow of water. 3. If possible don’t use the tap connector supplied by Cingaro to connect the system to main tap. Use a soft hose pipe and a clamp for this. See pic. 4. Fixing the winged t connectors into the 4 mm pipe is a nightmare with bare hands. Your thumb and fingers will get sore in half an hour. Soften the end of the 4 mm pipe by heating it slightly, and use a gardening glove to twist the t in. Remember that the slanted end goes into the 16 mm pipe, straight end into the 4 mm pipe. 5. You will need to figure out the time you need to leave this on by trial and error. A 9” plastic pot needs about 100-300 ml water. The drippers are rated for 1 litre per hour. So if you leave the system on for about 5-15 minutes, your plants will get enough water. 6. If you have small and large pots, you can order other types of drippers separately and use them on the same line. Green ones are rated at 2 litres per hour. 7. If you want to fit it and forget it, you will have to order a timer valve. You can get a multi outlet timer valve also, if you want separate times and setting for leafy and flowering plants. Because the system is so flexible, it will very nearly do everything you ask it to do. Except plucking the flowers! 😁

Nice product and easy installation. Packing could be better

Good

Ok for as per price

I ordered the 60-plant irrigation kit, but unfortunately, I was unable to use it due to persistent quality control issues. The first package arrived without the essential feeder pipe. I requested a replacement, but the second box was even worse, arriving with only the main pipe and missing almost all other components. It seems there are significant issues with how this kit is managed and verified before leaving the warehouse.

very easy to assemble and quality is good

Been a couple days i have used this and here are my observations: Fit - all fittings fit snugly with no much leakage. The system does not require a high flow rate/pressure. I connect it to my main water line at flow rate of about 1l/min and it works without hassles. The loosest fit is the dripper which is at risk to come loose if high water pressure is used. Adjustability : This I would consider somewhat of a con in that it's not a drip irrigation. The flow rate at the slowest from the dripper is at around 49ml/min, which is quite high. So within 10mins u will have watered about 500ml . Further there is no option to turn off the dripper. To stop flow u need to unplug the dripper and block the 4mm pipe. Appearance: Quite aesthetic looking if u route the main supply pipe properly. My suggestion here would be to place the main pipe (16mm) at a higher level and the 4mm pipe to be connected along the bottom to go downwards. (Have ordered more main pipe and will post photos once my system is set) Value for money: definitely as at ₹500-600 for 30 plants, u can just turn on the mains and forget it for the time u want to water.(else u lose around 1/2 hr watering each plant individially) If u use an irrigation timer even this much attention will not be required. To sum up: Pros: Works as advertised Fit it and forget it - hence time saving Doesn't require much water pressure. Cons: Dripper fitting is on the looser side Slowest drip rate is ~50ml/min No option to turn the dripper off. Suggestions: Use sprinkler type end drippers along with these drip ones if u need to cover a wider ground area(e.g. in gardens where u might have a mix of plants growing on the ground and in pots)

It made the watering job easy. Earlier it took 45 mins to watering our 100+ pots. Now it became very easy. Easy setup. Water speed is controllable. Best product.
