Why stop now?
With the lighted nozzle in place, you can water under cover of darkness, effectively dodging a daytime watering ban and wasting electricity. Whew! Somebody pass the synthetic nitrogen fertilizer.
All kidding aside, watering after dark can promote fungus on your foliage, anyway.
Save yourself the stress of midnight maintenance next planting season, and let's talk about how easily you can install drip irrigation instead.
