2500 sq. ft. is a great size patch! I would be scared to cost that out for a drip system but I guess anything can be done if the pockets are deep enough.
I've used drip hoses for several years and this year just never got around to it so I am watering overhead exclusively and foliar feeding with pump sprayer....plants have never looked better.

A drip system from Dripworks for a 2500 sq. ft. patch would be very cheap, actually. I use their system with much satisfaction.
The KROW starter system would be ideal and can be added to easily. I grow on a 12000 sq. ft. patch.
Try dripworks.com and check out their catalog. It's on-line.

I use Dripworks and they are great. I ordered the row crop kit and then added more t-tape and fittings. It won't be as expensive as you think. The nice thing about the row crop kit is it has all the hardware so all you have to add is more t-tape and fittings for them. If you e-mail them they are very helpful...they'll explain how much water you'll be pushing and how to space the t-tapes best. Mark
