I have an idea for a gravity fed water system but need some help. I will try and explain what I am looking to do .
I have a 8 foot raised bed that is 3 feet deep. I would like to take a 4” PVC pipe stand it vertical and attach a T to the bottom. Basically a upside down T. Off each T section running a 3 foot section of 4” PVC pipe and capping them off. I then want to put in (4) ¼” house bibs attached to the 4” PVC sections of the upside down T. I would then run ¼” hose to each tree. I can put a bucket full of water down the pipe and then run out on each tree.
The issue….
Adapting the ¼” house bib to the 4” PVC. I even thought about reducing the size of the pipe on the T but not sure how I can do that.
Any suggestions or did I just totally confuse everyone?
Here is a simple drawing
