Okay, so I’ve been meaning to upgrade my watering game for the garden. My old watering can was tiny, and it took forever to water everything. I saw this 13-liter watering can and thought, “That’s the ticket!”
Getting Started
First, I unboxed the thing. It was bigger than I expected! Pretty straightforward though – a big plastic jug with a handle and a spout.
The First Fill-Up
- I dragged it over to the outdoor faucet.
- Attached the hose.
- Turned on the water.
Man, it took a while to fill up! I guess that’s what you get with 13 liters. It got pretty heavy too. I hefted it up and realized I might need to work on my arm strength.
Watering Time
I lugged the full can over to my flower beds. Started with the petunias. The flow was good, nice and steady. I could control it pretty well by tilting the can. No splashing or anything.
I moved on to the tomatoes, then the herbs. It was definitely faster than my old can. I could cover more ground with each trip.
The Aftermath
After I finished watering everything, I still had some water left. Bonus! My arms were a little tired, but hey, free workout, right?
I emptied the remaining water and put the can away in the shed. Overall, I’m pretty happy with it. It’s sturdy, does the job, and saves me a bunch of trips back and forth to the faucet. Definitely a worthwhile upgrade!
