 Folks
 
 I have avoided overhead watering in an attempt to stop powdery mildue but
 find it does not make any difference the leaves are now almost completely
 white and where I have had sprinklers on the foliage it is no worse than
 elsewhere. Perhaps it is better just to give it the works.

I used Drip Irrigation for 5 years before giving it up.  It would cause
shallow rooting and the roots would gather around the emitters loosing the
benefit of the rest of the garden soil.
