I am getting ready to order 8 mil, low flow T-Tape
on 12" spacing. I have 20 beds that are 5' X 100' and I
will lay 4 to 8 lines of T-Tape per bed. The tape is laid on top
of the bed, rows are marked and then seeded or transplanted.
I usually dispose of the tape at the end of the
season. From an ecological and economical view this seems to be a
tremendous waste.
I am looking for an easy way to roll up the T-Tape
at the end of the season so that it is out of the way, but ready to be reused
the following spring. What I had in mind is a small spool that would be placed
at the barb or fitting off of the main line. At the end of the season the
100' length of the T-Tape would be rolled up and left over winter. In the
spring one could then easily roll the tape back
out.
Has anybody experimented with this method or
another way to roll up the T-Tape so that it can be reused?
Thanks.
David
