Hand watering

The shower spray pattern gives a high flow of water, so it’s great for watering most plants without disturbing compost.

Sometimes you need a strong stream of water for a more concentrated precise soak, such as when you’re washing the car. Choose the centre spray pattern for these jobs.

The full spray pattern is a little like the shower. But because it’s more powerful, it’s better for watering more sturdy plants from further away.

The jet spray setting is too strong for plants, but it has plenty of power for hosing down your driveway, pathways or pavers. The big jet is even more powerful than the small jet, so use it when you need to give paving or outdoor items a good clean.

The flat pattern has a horizontal V spray for watering broad surfaces, a row of plants or rinsing soap off your car.

If you want to water several plants at once, choose the cone pattern. It gives a light circular spray to save time and water even the most delicate plants.
