(More customer reviews)For years I've been looking for a small fertilzer injector that I can attach to my faucet and fertilze my small vegetable garden. I have a drip irrigation system and cannot use a dry fertilzer any more. This is exactly what I have been looking for. I can even use Miracle-Gro fertilzer in it! I'm now interested in installing a larger injector on the rest of my yard.

Special Note: Although the literature for this item references a backflow preventer, filter and pressure regulator, the item sold here is the fertilizer injector only. Backflow preventer, filter and pressure regulator must be purchased separately if needed.Amid the continuing concern over water shortages, it appears that many commercial growers, landscape contractors, as well as homeowners, are either initially installing, or converting to, drip irrigation. But this change poses yet another dilemma. How do you fertilize the plant material if utilizing a drip irrigation system in order to conserve water, as well as save time and money? No longer can you broadcast dry granular fertilizer onto the soil surface and expect it to be leached into the soil by overhead watering where the plant's roots can pick-up the nutrients. Therefore,the fertilizer must be dispensed directly into the irrigation system itself!The concept of fertilizing directly through the irrigation system, commonly known as fertigation, has been used by the agricultural community for quite some time. When commercial growers began to utilize drip irrigation and abandoning flood or conventional overhead sprinklers, they immediately realized that they must also provide a method to fertilize their crops. Thus sprang the concept of fertigation.
