Question:
Suppose you were hired to design an automatic irrigating system for a wealthy homeowner's garden. You determine that the flower beds should be kept at a water potential above -60 kPa, but not wetter than -10 kPa, as the annual flowers here are sensitive to both drought and lack of good aeration. The rough turf areas, however, can do well if the soil dries to as low as -300 kPa. Your budget allows either tensiometers or electrical resistance blocks to be hooked up to electronic switching valves. Which instruments would you use and where? Explain.
