I got rain water barrels also x5 -275 gal black ones .I also have the same style of pump as you do,.I was using just a little inline mirical grow fertilizer pot dump and it just wasn't up to the task and feed I wanted be able to feed all my 160 raised containers, Anyway I copied exactly what you have built and I must say it works great and I can fertilize with volume if I want ,and I do need to do ,the little venturi small junk just never did work either ,this what you made is great ,with high volumes,as well as mind and again thanks,,I can also mix in the my 2-5 gal buckets and add other nutrients as well now ,sharing between both buckets and flowing once ,,from Ga. Again thanks for the idea

I'm going to try a y hose splitter backwards so its a joiner. I'll let you know how it works out! Nice setup and sure beats watering cans.

I've been using Jack's tomatoe classic blue fertilizer,,I always used this because of my soil type and the type nitrogen I need to use,It's on Amazon now for 2 lbs for 14.00 bucks,,this is great as it's classified as a Classic fertilizer as It's been tested throughout the years and proven

Awesome does the pump pull the water and the fertilizer

[@TheSwaffordHomestead]

Yes The pump when the valves are turn right (Adjusted ) will draw the rain water & fertilizer water together! The pump then feeds the drip lines! The gravity flow of the tank will fill the bucket because the incoming flow is greater than the pumps suction needs.

[@GregHarrisFL]

I connected a siphon set up from Amazon to my hose and it just keeps overflowing my bucket (hose on both sides of a adapter with rube in the middle to bucket)
Why? Same as this basically just can't get it to work

[@TheSwaffordHomestead]

I use the ball vales to control the incoming pressure so it doesn't out do (suction) the electric pump. Or my bucket overflows. It could be too much back pressure on the outgoing side. Water will flow the easiest direction. thanks

Is that pumped by a hayward pool pump?

[@TheSwaffordHomestead]

Its a cheap transfer pump off Ebay or Northern tool. Cheap Simple redneck setup!
