Thank you truly for the kind words Dave -- always happy to answer any questions that come up as well, as you demonstrate so well on your channel, a big property isn't necessary for a beautiful and bountiful garden :)

Great video once again! I do have a question for you though. Planning a drip system that will be utilizing gathered rainwater from a reservoir, the water is then filtered (somewhat) and pumped to the drip system. I foresee the potential of emitters getting clogged as a result from small bits of debris floating in the lines. I know i can flush the lines as well as install a filter prior to the drip tape but still I foress potential issues in that regard. Would you advise I use a drip tape with a more flow (0.46gpm instead of 0.25gpm) might be less resistant to clogging. Or would drip tube (as opposed to tape) be a better option being that theres a potential of small debris in the water resulting in clogging. I appreciate your insight and guidance! Thanks for the videos!

Your instincts are correct! The higher flow emitters do have larger orifices which makes them able to pass larger debris than lower flow emitters. I would also say that poly drip line is a little more clog resistant, but the difference isn't in magnitudes, they're both designed to resist clogging (though regular flushing would be required). The poly drip line is designed to have a turbulent flow path. That coupled with the inlet filters at each emitter sees debris dislodged so it can be flushed out of the end. I would still definitely recommend a filter, however -- the smaller filters are pretty inexpensive if you're looking to stay within a budget -- you might have to clean it fairly frequently depending on water quality, but I think it's a time saver over replacing clogged tape :)
