Seems kind of unfair to the people who don't have sprinkler systems.



Yes, if i were putting in a new system today I would definitely consider some of the drip options for some areas. And a few hose bibs run by the master controller that could be used to water the drip line of trees with a soaker hose.
It is easy to convert your sprinkler heads to soaker hoses. Just unscrew the spray nozzle and screw in a nozzle with a barb for a drip line. All our bushes are on bubblers and garden is on drip lines. Our small front yard is the only thing on spray nozzles now.
