Indicate the advantages and disadvantages of mat, tube, and overhead sprinkler water systems for pot watering

What will be an ideal response?


Mat watering has the advantage of accommodating pots of any size
without modification to the system. It requires a flat bench and leads to
modification of the fertilization system. Microtube watering requires adaptation to
fit pots of different sizes, but like mat watering it is a system which keeps plant
foliage dry thus reducing disease incidence. Overhead spray is the cheapest to
install. For a few crops it is a safe method of watering but for most, it fosters
disease development by wetting foliage.
