So I have 180 plants in my flower room.
I have a 300 gallon reservoir to be fitted with an automatic shut off, this reservoir
will be atop of a very sturdy cabinet. Within the cabinet will be (4) 55 gallon barrels.
The reservoir will house only RO water and will release water into the barrels when I
need to mix fertilizers. Barrels are easily removable for cleaning between fertilizing.
The cabinet will be conveniently located at the end of my rows. I have 4 rows of plants
with 45 plants in each row. Basically i would like for this drip system to be able to
last a full 48 hours per fert mix, giving each plant just over 1/2 gallon of water per
day at max. I am also trying to keep my run-off to a minimum.
My main question.
I've been looking at several different emitters. Just wondering which have shown to have nice even dispersal and won't just allow the water to pool at the base of the plant.
Thanks for the help.
