Overview
A small sprinkler that sprays water around it. Requires a hose connection to supply it with water.
Set one among your planters and watering stops being a chore. It sprays water around itself onto everything in reach, so a single sprinkler can cover several large planter boxes that would otherwise each want their own line.
It sits in the Electrical tab, yet power is not what it asks for. Its game text names one need: water through a hose. The sensible setup puts a water barrel right before it, so the plants keep getting wet after the rain stops and while you spend an hour roaming the other side of the map.
Mind its thirst. A farm with several sprinklers goes through water faster than rain alone brings in, and on a dry server a catcher-only setup runs empty and leaves the plants to wilt anyway. Groups that farm hard feed their sprinklers from a water pump instead.
At 75 frags and a Level 1 bench it is one of the cheapest crafts in its tab, and it stacks to ten. Make a few spares while you are at it; a new planter row will want one.
