I'm building a drip system with 5" netpots. Was gonna go bigger (use 2 gallon pots) but didn't due to increased cost of whole system -- the 2 gallon pots, 8 times the amount of Hydroton, more drippers, bigger pump to run all those drippers...........
Anyway, does anyone know how many drip emitters I'd need to go on each 5" netpot, and what a good flow rate is for a drip emitter? Like that won't clog often. I'm looking for the smallest flow rate that won't clog often and will keep 'em wet (because those gallons-per-hour add up fast, makes a huge difference in how big a pump you have to buy to run all of them).
I saw some drip emitters online that are 2 and 4gph, was thinking maybe the 2gph............
