    Default Small Drip System

    I'm planning on making a small drip system.

    Everything seems fairly straight forward as long as I get all my measurements correct.

    Only thing, how do I know which size of pump to use? As well, which sized piping?

    It's just going to be a small system with 20 half gallon containers and will later add 40 quart sized containers.

    Yep. I'm told the pumps should indicate how "far" they shoot. So the size ofpump depends on how long the piping is...I was confused because I only remembered the box showing "gph".lol
