Abstract
The present invention relates to a subirrigation system designed for deployment within an absorbent soil medium beneath one or more plants. The system comprises one or more reservoirs that may be partially filled with an irrigating liquid. The top of each reservoir has a plurality of holes to allow for drainage and air exchange and at least one trough, which extends down into the reservoir. The trough floor has a plurality of holes so that irrigating liquid in the reservoir may pass into the absorbent soil medium which fills the trough and upward by capillary movement to the roots. Systems for linking, automating and controlling the subirrigation process are disclosed.
