Vertical garden with or without filter?

As you know I built a green wall with a watering system that works by itself.

I have to say it’s working very well and it suits a lazy person like me a lot! :)

However I found out that my vertical garden does need some maintenance once in a while..

Today I found out that one of the drippers got stuck and that no water was flowing through it. Therefore one plant didn’t get the water that it needs. This plant looked already weak for a couple of days, now I know why!

A filter in your watering system will help you in the first place to keep the water clean that is flowing through the dripping system.

However it can still happen that some dirt will get into your drippers, resulting that part of your green wall is not receiving enough water.

My tip: Make sure that you can access the drippers, so you can clean them if necessary.
