I am trying to figure out a new way to water my beds. One idea was to use sweating hose, which are giving water over time to the beds, but I am not sure if this will work?
If you have any tips, please share them with me?
I need a better solution for my watering system, because I stand every day in the garden for 1 hour, only to water it.

Today's #PhotoOfTheDay was inspired by today's WhereTaken quiz. While the rest of the tour group were being entertained by a demonstration of batik at Romney Manor I wandered off (after telling the guide) and found something more interesting, a ruin of an old rum distillery. This aqueduct was used to feed a 10 metre water wheel that was connected to machinery that crushed sugar cane.

The spectacular Lin's Mill Aqueduct, completed in 1822 to carry the Union Canal 75ft above the River Almond, which at this point forms the boundary between Edinburgh and West Lothian. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/ratho/linsmill/index.html

The Pont du Gard is an amazing first century AD Roman aqueduct bridge built to carry water over 50 km to Nîmes in Provence. It has been on UNESCO's list of World Heritage sites since 1985. Pic from 2011 visit. #roman #aqueduct #nimes #provence

My #MidweekMuseum recommendation today is a series of locations dotted across #Lisbon in #Portugal that together make up the Museu da Água, or #WaterMuseum. Pictured here is the impressive Águas Livres #Aqueduct (from which great views of the city can be had), the Mãe d’Água and the Reservatório da Patriarcal #reservoirs, and the latter's 400 metre long #tunnel that makes its way under the city to Miradouro de São Pedro de Alcântara.

http://www.thehistoryblog.com/archives/66353
A previously unknown subterranean tract nearly half a mile long of an Augustan-era aqueduct has been rediscovered by spelunkers in Naples, southern Italy. Spelo-archaeologists from the non-profit Cocceius Association were able to investigate 647 meters (2123 feet) of a branch that tunnels through the Posillipo Hill.

Here’s a wider shot I took this summer. The #aqueduct channel is about in the middle of the image at the right side of the calanchi ridge. #Libarna #RomanArchaeology #RomanAqueduct #RomanArchitecture
