I just water by hand. In my small yard, it takes me about half an hour a week or an hour at most, and that includes watering the lawn by hand. Would it be nice to have something more sophisticated, yes; is it worth the time and money to me, no. In our cool, damp, coastal climate, we just don't need to water very much.
