I want to set up my balcony containers on a drip system with timers. I am clueless. Any suggestions before I do something really stoopid? silly me

CN, when I put drip irrigation on my raised bed last year I used the plans & videos provided by Dripworks, plus they have a tremendous support team that loves to provide answers to noobs like me. Check out their resources page at Dripworks Resources to see if there is some helpful info there.

Well, duh! I never thought to look, but there's one on the outside wall, to the right, underneath the balcony. The water source in on the left corner of the house, so they're about 15' away from each other. The area underneath is just dirt -- not used for anything.

Dripworks is my go-to for drip 1/4" and 1/2" drip lines! They are in Willits, CA. Just going through their online catalogue is fun. Oh, and I got 2 free tee-shirts from them at the Heirloom Exposition last September. And, I won their drawing of a bag of goodies, including a stand-alone battery powered timer!
