My need was to automatically water up to 10 plants per raised bed. The commercial Gardena Micordrip lends itself very well to this, but it is relatively expensive and the philosophy is a ring-shaped distribution of water. However, I prefer a star-shaped, it is more applicable for me and the hoses are more recyclable.

This system is printed in PETG and has been in use for a year, so it has proven itself.

I bought the end pieces, called droppers, original. Also the hose with 3/16 inch inner diameter (approx. 7 mm outer diameter) and the gray screw connectors with seal to the conical water spreader I designed.

Meine Notwendigkeit war es, bis zu 10 Pflanzen pro Hochbeet automatisch zu bewässern. Dazu bietet sich das kommerzielle Gardena Micordrip sehr gut an, allerdings ist es relativ teuer und die Philosophie ist ein ringförmige Verteilung des Wassers. Ich bevorzuge jedoch eine sternförmige, die ist für mich besser anwendbar und die Schläuche sind besser wiederverwertbar.

Dieses System ist in PETG gedruckt und bereits seit einem Jahr im Einsatz, es hat sich also bewährt.

Die Endstücke, die sog. Tropfer, habe ich original gekauft. Ebenso den Schlauch mit 3/16 Zoll Innendurchmesser (ca. 7 mm Außendurchmesser) und die grauen Schraub-Verbindungsstücke mit Dichtung zum von mir designten konischen Wasserverteiler.

 

The conical water spreader was printed with 10 wall lines, so I got 100% infill.
Nevertheless, the print is not 100% waterproof, it drips minimally (at 6 bar pressure)

Note: The up to 10 water tubes are much easier to mount on the manifold in cold temperatures ! At warm temperatures the plastic of the tubes becomes ductile and you risk tearing off the mounting plugs.
