Our superstar gardening guru Jamie (Find her on instagram at @Garden_Grown) shows us exactly how to set up and install the self timer sprinkler / drip irrigation system for plants, to make sure her garden in Melbourne, Australia gets plenty of water all year round, even when she's away on holidays.
