Irrigation CHALLENGE 3

I generally prefer troughs to pots as they have the advantage of allowing you to create the illusion of garden beds. Plants exposed to the wind, which they often are on balconies, require a lot of water due to their high rate of transpiration. They can be linked together with irrigation and drainage, thus solving the problem of hand watering and unsightly drainage water. If there’s no room for troughs, you are probably restricted to pots.
