    B65800E0-C7D6-451B-8DE7-DB2B46B1E475.jpeg Need help with drip irrigation design for 5-6 recently planted trees.
    Hopefully the photo will post with this.
    Note:
    Lower right is closest spikot that runs from well with 1 inch pipe.
    Approx 50 ft to cement drive where I jetted a 1 inch pvc under.
    Trees are noted and space between.

    Thanks for your ideas.

    Don't overthink it. Do you have power to the line? I have 12 trees on two separate 3/4" PVC lines, that are reduced to 1/4" flexible tubing, that tie into micro bubblers. The trees are watered for 3 minutes, twice a day (in the evening) and these small lines supply all the water needed for the trees.

    Glad yours is working out for you.
    I’m not overthinking it. I am trying to get input as to types of lines and sizes. No elect at water source.
