Simple and 0 cost irrigator light rain

In my country has broken out in the spring and with it the desire of the garden and cultivation; so my brain is squeezed to try some new solution to the problems related to the supply of water to plants which would allow both to irrigate efficiently without waste.
The last year I devised a simple system to irrigate without waste and specifically in the area that needed it with the system for irrigation of tomato that I presented in my instructable; that system had many advantages why did waste very little water.
However, one disadvantage was obvious: the water that ran the tube at high speed to go to ground, in a short time he dug a small hole that put her bare also the roots of the plant and whether or not I was going to call promptly loam Commons the plant itself was in danger.

Step 1 The components

 So I modified the old system, making it an inexpensive drip system to prevent the erosion of the soil near the roots.
This was possible with a simple trick that consisted in creating a system of brake for the exit of the water.
This system allows a triple advantage:
1) water drops slowly and not dig the ground (as I said before),
2) filling the bottle you can see with your own eyes how much water you actually make the plant without waste due to classical thought: "still a little, maybe I paid too little"
3)the slow descent of the water promotes a better absorption of soil by avoiding the "flood"
