Garden Sprinklers


Don't buy this kind of sprinkler (above Vigoro brand, not to be mistaken for Viagra brand).  We bought several and they barely lasted a season.  Whatever it is that makes them go back and forth stops working and they get stuck in one position.

  I got some new sprinklers and set them up yesterday.  So far they are working well.  Gilmour brand and the package says "lifetime replacement".  Whatever that means.  Perhaps they consider "lifetime" to be one season.

Instead of going back and forth, shooting the water up high over the tops of tall plants, they go 'round and 'round and don't shoot the water very high.  That might be a problem when the plants get taller.
