Hey everyone, I am researching fert and watering setups for next year. Probably going with driptape and dosatron. I do have a question. As you incorporate things other than fertilizer, do you still use the dosatron? If I have a large volume concoction of tea and other additives does everyone put it out the old fashioned way with a bucket? or do you run high volumes through dosatron? Sorry I'm very new to all of this.

I mix up my stuff in a 330 gallon tote and pump threw the irrigation system. A fert injector might only allow particles of certain size threw it. We're my tank and tote will push particles threw it no problem. My micro heads get an inline filter which requires cleaning regularly ( daily )

Irrigation pump.. tried well pumps and even had a pressure tank going for a while but the irrigation pump has worked for several years now.. was about 120 bucks.. has 1 inch inlet and outlet.. 120 volt.. I know a guy with 2 inch inlet and outlet.. but I think he runs 230 volt.. his will empty a tote so fast you won't be able to finish a cigarette ... but his might be over kill...if that is even possible..lol
