Any reason not to use these fittings?

I call that working harder

And screwing something onto a kitchen tap, running a hose out through the kitchen to wherever it has to go, have someone standing at the tap ready to turn it on and off at the required times and then packing it all up and also storing it away from contamination
Yep that’s easier than a couple of short trips with a watering can

If you use the correct fittings you just have a hose gun on the end, no need to turn tap on and off, plus you get jet for cleaning, sprinkle for sparge etc.
Yeh rolling up and putting away takes 5 min's, maybe I'm lazy but going back and forth with a watering can isn't my idea of fun when you can have a hose there. Strokes for folks of course.

Haha, sorry Ballaratguy, I'm inclined to agree with Grmblz! I set my guten up right beside the kitchen sink and I've used those hose fittings to make my life easier!
