We are in the woods in mid-December installing new lines. Watch as John goes over the process of hanging laterals. Shop our online store: www.morleymapl...
Fairly new to this. So funny question. Why does everybody use barbed fittings? Why not push in compression fittings? Like tees and connectors, just like what everybody uses on the osmosis systems. On the 3/16 or 5/16 lines for the trees. Thanks Fred
Ok you have a lateral up. Do you mark the tree with a number, and have the same number on the lateral line, if the lateral is taken down every year, say for cleaning or storage.
I have a lease from USDA. Have a 10 year lease of 13 acres in a Federal National Forest. I’m on my third 10 year lease, before this it was a 5 year lease, and still further back yearly permits. Have two main lines 3/4”, and 25 laterals. There rules not mine everything goes up in the spring and taken down by May 15TH. Numbers on the trees and brass tags on laterals. Tap 300, one tap per tree. Should switch to 3/16”, but to old and stubborn.

Yes, that makes sense and would work. We normally don't take our lines down.
