No real solution Annie, but you might check the pressure. Sometimes putting too much pressure on the line overloads the delicate connections.

Subject: [Community_garden] Leaking Drip Irrigation System


My name is Annie Preston, and I am a student at Temple University as well as a worker for the nonprofit Philadelphia urban farming/education organization
Urban Tree Connection.  Urban Tree Connection has started several gardens
throughout West and North Philadelphia and we are beginning production on a
large lot this year at 53rd St and Wyalusing Ave in Haddington,
Philadelphia.

A component of the new farm is a drip irrigation system, which we have
successfully installed but are having issues with leakages where the lateral
drip tubes attach to the main line. Do you have any idea what kind of seal
one could put at this connection point to prevent spraying at these
connection points? Thanks for any guidance you many be able to provide!
