From the Manufacturer Trees and shrubs need periodic deep watering. Apply enough water to wet the entire root zone and to encourage deep rooting. Deeper roots are better able to withstand periods of drought; shallow watering, on the other hand, leads to shallow roots and plants that are susceptible to drought and strongly affected by fluctuating temperatures. Review: Get a Bully Soil Probe tool to work with your Yard Butler tool! Great combo! - It is a great tool for watering deep in the soil , but it wears out quickly . The tube has a lengthwise seam joined together as it is not seamless. So if you push it down repeatedly , the seam will start cracking and leaking . I have a solution by buying a Bully soil probinig tool which looks ldentical but is a solid steel rod that can be used to create the deep hole first, then follow up with this Yard Butler watering tool without effort. The tip of the Yard Butler watering tool is easily clogged with mud which you need to unclog with a 8d galvanized nail. , but this problem may go away if you also use the Bully tool to clear the way first. The Bully tool is very rugged but easily bent which is ok as you can unbend it back . it will become somewhat crooked but I don't care. as long as it can break a deep hole down to make it a lot easier for me to push the hollow Yard Butler down . I use it to water the lawn at about a meter interval all over. The grass roots can sense water deep that will last much longer than your typical sprinkler system. If you have a little muscle , you will find it a very efficient way to water the water thirsty lawn! You can use some sort of plastic plugs to seal the holes for future rewatering which may be either weekly or biweekly depending on the shade of the lawn and exposure of sunlight. This combo of YardButler and Bully soil probe tool can be one of the great answers to our water shortages, who knows? You can either choose 36 or 48 inch Bully soil probe tool . There is also 60 inch one but it is not necessary for lawns. I think 36 inch is most optimal choice for your Bully Soil Probe Tool as it may be less likely to be bent than the longer ones from pushing into the soil. It is fascinating to watch how the YardButler pump water deep into the soil because some holes filled up quicker than other ones probably due to soil fissures underground, I don't know. It can be gopher holes also. As long as you water very deep, water lasts down there much longer and your lawn will get deep rooted. You sometimes do not need any lawn fertilizer at all as the lawn will turn green on its own due to abudance of water deep underground which means increased soil nutrition to the lawn root itself. You will save money on expensive lawn fertilizers that lasts only a few weeks. My lawn stays green through the hot summer without any fertilizer at all. All u need is add water deep! Review: It works fine. - I saw some reviews mention to words of this effect ' Oh, this thing is no good for clay, etc or it just plain sucks and gets plugged up'. Well, I took a gamble and ordered one. A gamble I say because I live in the SE Texas Gulf Coast, in Galveston County. The yard I have is loaded with clay substrate. Right now we in this area of Texas are in a severe extreme drought so the ground is quite dry. I had no problems getting this to work in my soil. I only had it 'plug' up a couple of times and that was the fault one time of some root material the other because I was trying to go too fast. I don't think anyone would have much issue with this device if they do not try to force it into the ground too fast. Give the water time to do its magic with hydraulic and lubrication mojo as you ease it in. I usually end up a good 2 feet into the ground if not near 3 feet then back it out some. If I hit a very dry patch of clay , one can tell if one listens to ones nervous system whilst they apply downward pressure, I ease up a good number of seconds. I apply full water pressure for getting it in the ground then usually back off the pressure once it is in. I didn't' have to fool with drilling any holes in it as I have seen others here mention. I can't see why that would be needed but one could I suppose depending on soil. As I say, my ground here is clay heavy and it is VERY dry this season. I took off a point cause the end bit is rusting already. Of course it would it is just plain ol steel of some sort. I guess we can't expect stainless at this price. Mineral oil I'd think might be safely applied to help prevent that. The hose bib area seems well constructed enough. No plastic there, a brass bibbly bit. Nice to see that. It works fine I can't complain. My trees seem happier now that they have had some drinks on me. ## Features - Irrigation Gardening Tool: Irrigator's self-drilling tip reaches deep into the root zone to deliver water directly to the plant's roots - Heavy-Duty & Durable Supplies: Made with powder-coated steel, this irrigator is sturdy, rust-resistant, and built to last; can withstand years of outdoor use - Promote Healthy Plants: Delivers water directly to the root zone, eliminating wasteful runoff and evaporation; helps save water and promotes healthy plant growth - High-Quality Gardening Supplies: Yard Butler garden tools are designed to last a lifetime so you can stop buying plastic or cheap metal products that don't hold up - Nurture with Yard Butler: Gardening tools and supplies designed to nurture your connection with the earth and passion for gardening ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000P7M740 | | Best Sellers Rank | #87,271 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #247 in Watering Cans | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (614) | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 12 ounces | | Item model number | 100051044 | | Manufacturer | Yard Butler | | Product Dimensions | 36.5 x 9 x 1.13 inches | ## Images ![Yard Butler Deep Root Irrigator - Unique Gardening Tool for Irrigation - Deliver Water Directly to Plant Roots - Promote Healthy Growth & Minimize Water Waste - Easy-to-Use Gardening Supplies - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51mxOpkOSwL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Customer Package Type** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Get a Bully Soil Probe tool to work with your Yard Butler tool!

I have not experienced some of the problems a few of the reviewers had with the hose attachment coming apart. I did find it a bit hard to get the hose screwed on tight and had to use a water pump wrench. But I put a hose valve on the irrigator first and leave that on all the time so no problem. I can see a problem with grains of sand getting in the tip end and then blocking water flow. I had that problem with the irrigators this one is replacing which were L shaped and I could use a nail to loosen the grain and then tap it out the hose end. With yardbutler, I will have to somehow get the grain to fall into the hose connection pipe. So use max water pressure when inserting the irrigator and don't lean over the handle because you can get blasted in the face with mud if it blows back. I was glad to find this irrigator because it was the only that has the opening on the tip not the side. That way you can quickly drill a new hole and have enough water pressure to excavate the mud so your hole is easily reusable without a struggle thereafter. I prefer this to the Ross and other irrigators although they have their fans too. Keep a stick or whatever in the holes you drill so you can find them next time. Anyway, try this deep watering tool. I live in the desert. I water one tree or shrub all day keeping it on not much more than a drip so I water deeply and use much less water. The trick is to adjust the flow so the water barely flows out of the hole and leave it that way all day. And use plastic hose valves. Hot weather causes the metal ones to expand and turn themselves off. One last blab. Don't leave the irrigator in a hole when not using. Pull it out and drain it by opening the valve if you use one or removing the hose. Your irrigator will last longer.
