Yard Size Only rotary sprinklers can cost-effectively handle very large areas. With the water discharged under high pressure, it can easily cover the more impressive residential yards found in the Toledo, Ohio region. Sprayers and drip lines are best suited for smaller parcels.
Yard Slope If the lawn tilts at an angle, water is likely to run off. Since drip lines deposit water directly in the ground, this won’t be a problem for them. Sprinklers also perform well here because they send a discreet amount of water in one spot before moving on. This allows time for the water to be absorbed before the next pass occurs.
Soil Type This consideration is similar to ground slope in that it affects water absorption. Both heavy clay soils that slowly imbibe water and porous sandy soils can be found in this area. The continuous flow of water from sprayers can overwhelm clay soils but also protect sandy soils from getting too dry.
Types of Plants Since they’re set in the ground, drip lines don’t mix well with garden annuals. Most flowers and vegetables also don’t tolerate getting hit by the high-pressure jet from a sprinkler. Turf and shrubbery, on the other hand, have no trouble with a sprinkler system.
