Hello,

one of my drip lines to a plant is continuing to drip water out of the line even when the system is off, what does this mean and how do I fix it?

Thank you

It means the shutoff is not working and I can't see it to tell you what to do.

drip

If it NEVER stops you have a bad valve and must either repair or replace it. If it does stop, then it is at the low end of the system and the leakage is the water draining down from the rest of the piping.
