Thank you so much family ???Kits by bed size, you'll need a pressure reducer too. The site linked has everything you'll need.Welcome | Sustainable Village

I have a drip kit similar to that. Gotta figure out a way to make a clean run from the water source to the GH then in each pot so it can be modular and I can move shit around.Kits by bed size, you'll need a pressure reducer too.

Run the lines overhead.
Alternatively, figure out "wireless" transmission. I'll be waiting.
Hmmm what’s this wireless transmission? Since my water source is in a tote on a wagon w a pump n hose I’m thinking of how to do this. I could change shit cuz I won’t be running this season, I have plenty to give to family, friends, anyone in need and for myself

So basically a clean like to the dripper ?

My water source is really close to my beds, would that effect anything ?
Sorry what I meant was a clean job installing the drippers. Thinking of how I can do this w a semi mobile water source
I think so. Shorter lines, less chance of mucking em up, kinking, n clogging. Quicker adjustments and probably look cleaner. One of the things I’ve noticed is that if your water source is in a tote or smth you gotta make the lid black or algae forms. Same w any hoses you don’t wanna use clear ones
Bad joke? Wireless = Pipeless
You won't get away from having a little spaghetti. Even if you have the cleanest of clean set-ups, to remain mobile/flexible there will always be at least one pile of spaghetti.
In addation to algae/buildup there is friction loss. Hooking to the house spiggot you shouldn't notice any adverse effect with a single length (~50') of garden hose. Keep the runs of smaller diameter lines (after the pressure reducer) as short as possible. Pressure will drop after each dripper so make a loop so you don't end up with a dripper at the end of the line not getting sufficient pressure.
If the lines are the hard kind they won’t spaghetti up on you. They come coiled up so maybe fix it to how it’s like one of those coiled up pneumatic air hoses then set up the mobile water station w a hook to hang it after done. The lines could coil up kinda like a spring shape extending in n out holding the coil shape.
