What's up people here's a little step by step tutorial regarding setting up drip lines outdoors.
The general concepts included can be applied to any size plant in any growing environment.
Materials:
- 3/4 inch tubing for the main feed
- 1/4 inch spaghetti tubing
- any multiple gallon per hour flag drillers.
- adapters to stab into the main feed that connect to the spaghetti tubing.
-suitable pump that will aid in creating lots of pressure
So it's a pretty basic setup. The pictures speak for themselves so I can not explain everything In too much details due to time restraints.
1. First set up a general outline that allows for ample walking room.
2. Make sure there's enough pressure.
3. No leaks. Leaks kill water pressure.
4. After setting everything up make sure to do many tests to make sure everything's in check.
5. Clean the drippers by pulling the flag out.
The main line comes in from the right side of the picture. It is split into two separate directions using a T adaptor. It's a lot easier to draw then explain.
I have 5 rows of plants in my setup so I used 3 main feeds which created the walking room I needed to spray and not trip on spaghetti tubes.
The ends of all 3 feeds have to be shut off to create pressure.
