When you are in the market for a sprinkler that will do a lot of work so you don't have to, consider
Rittenhouse's 30 pound cast iron walking sprinkler
Fertilizing chores go MUCH faster with the heavy duty
Earthway 50 pound broadcast spreader If you'd like to reduce your frequency of watering and risk of drought damage, consider adding Horticultural Grade Terra-Sorb (AKA Super-sorb) to your soil. It absorbs 300 to 400 times its weight in water and slowly releases it. It's non-toxic, non-hazardous to the environment, and compatible with fertilizer. Apply at a rate of 1 pound per 100 square feet for each 2 inches of depth by raking or tilling into the ground 2-4 inches (or mix 1/2 teaspoon into the soil under/around each individual plant).
