I'm going to upstate New York in about six weeks and while I'm gone, I want to make sure my tomatoes and flowers get watered.

Thinking about getting some type of watering system I can control with an app on my phone or a timer to do some automatic watering.

Anyone here have a system like that or have any recommendations?
 
Ya ain't got a neighbor, friend or family?
 
I'd suggest this one

I automatically water my wife's two raised garden beds in back then her 4 hibiscus plants in big huge pots then some annuals. Two timers ones a single one is a double. Works great to keep things alive
 
You can set this up easy enough.
PVC with sprinkler heads, it's movable.

Just got my wifi valves today and set them up already....

Work like a charm.

Now I just need the hose which will be here on Thursday.
 
Just hooked up my valves with Alexa.

Now I can create a routine and have the valves turn on and off at certain times of the day.

Rainpoint also has soil meters for moister and can turn on and off the valves as needed so you don't over water.

Keep in mind that some of those require pressure reducers. All depends on house pressure, hose diameter, and gph of heads/sprayers/drippers being used. Looks pretty good though
