I was out doing some gardening one day and decided to get up close and personal with the carrot patch.  Bending over I pealed aside the neighboring stalks of the acorn squash and pushed my head inside.  In there, I found the most wonderful environment, the day was fairly hot but inside the plant growth it was moist and cool.

You can see the drip irrigation tubing that provides a slow delivery of essential moisture to the plants.  The irrigation system is on a timer so that the garden receives water on a regular schedule.  This allows for better control of the environment the plants live in and minimizes any stress they would incur with an irregular watering schedule.
