{"title":"1\/2 inch garden hoses","description":"\u003cp\u003eA garden hose with a diameter of 1\/2 inch (12,5 mm) is worth shortlisting when easy handling and a slim hose route matter. Whether this size suits your irrigation needs depends on the combination of length, required flow rate, water source and watering device.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhen 1\/2 inch makes sense for your plans\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStart by planning the actual route from the tap to the furthest watering point. Measure along the route and add only a small allowance for movement. Unnecessary length adds weight and friction losses; insufficient length puts strain on the tap, couplings and plants. When watering individual beds or containers, easy handling is also often more important than having the largest possible hose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHose diameter alone does not predict a fixed flow rate in litres. Flow rate and pressure at the end also depend on hose length, water pressure, elevation differences, fittings, couplings and the spray gun. A practical preliminary test: fill a bucket of known capacity directly from the water source and time it. Then repeat the same test using the planned hose route and watering device.
