Hey everyone!
Thank you for all the great info. After giving it some consideration, I switched to 1/2" supply lines feeding each 1/4" line. (previously it was all 1/4" since I was going for slow drip.)
I went with the sprinklers in Worth1's post, and I am delighted to say that now that they have enough pressure, I was able to fine tune each one so that it seems that it will water the entire pot, and, fingers crossed, promote good root growth.
It seemed like the easier solution, though setting up a ring of drippers as suggested by Texastomato, sqwib, and considered the emitters suggested by Akmark.
But I l ready owned Worth1's and started gave it a shot. If the lower branches have issues from being wet, then next season I'll switch to a ring small drippers.
Now I just have to figure out the gph, and fine tune how much to water.
Thanks again!
