Install a Root Quencher device underground next to the plant you want to water and connect it to your existing irrigation system or hose as a standalone device. Water fills the chamber or spike and wicks out the holes to nourish the roots of your plants.

. The full size is designed to be adjustable for trees and large plants. The junior size is designed for shrubs and medium-sized plants. The spike is designed for small plants and garden beds.

How it Works

Root Quencher gets at the heart of your root watering problem

In order to get your trees and shrubs properly hydrated, you'll need to get your Root Quencher down into the ground (up to 22 inches deep) and connect it to a water source. This could mean modifying your existing irrigation system or simply connecting a hose.

Once your Root Quencher is in the ground and connected, it's important to observe how quickly the chamber fills up and adjust the flow as needed. Based on that information – and other variables like plant type and location – you can set up a zone or timer for automated watering. If you connect to an existing irrigation system, your watering may need to be adjusted. 

At the end of the day, every yard is different, so please refer to the owner's manual when installing your Root Quencher and contact a pro if you need a hand.
