The drippers come as a set up, the rest of the system will vary from grower to grower. Calculate how many drippers your pump can handle, and then you can size up your lines. You may need to install some solenoids, or shut offs too.
BTW, the reason I recommended a spray stake is it will cover the entire surface of your large containers, otherwise I would use two drippers.
As Nematode mentioned they will clog, walk your plants daily, and it is also a good idea to have a hose outlet plumbed into the system too, then you can spot water any plants that need it.
