Question:

Sprinkler system poly pipe size - RainBird design question?

I got a design from RainBird for my backyard sprinkler system I had a couple questions. I have a 3/4 supply line, but the current system that the landscaper put in for the front yard is using 1 poly pipe. Rainbird sent me a design with 2 zones on 1 poly and 3 on 3/4 poly. The two zones with 1 are actually smaller zones with a lot of heads to cover an odd shaped area and are about 9-10gpm flow rate. The 3 zones with 3/4 pipe are larger area zones with sprinkler heads that have greater coverage distances (15-25').My questions are, can I run everything with 1 poly instead of mixing and matching? The current front yard is all 1 like I said, and I would rather be able to buy fittings and pipe in bulk rather than mix and match everything. Does the 3/4 pipe provide a higher pressure or something? I'm just wondering why they would mix it and why it even matters considering I have a 3/4 copper supply

Answer:

no no no no no!!! two totally different things plants need photons, which are units of light. NOT heat. they enter plants' system for photosynthesis and thats how they make food. they need light for a reason!!!
Put it in the drier on air. This gets everything off for me. If you have little balls at elbows, pockets, etc. use a razor to shave it.
I wish we could clone Beethoven if we had his hair! unfortunately that is not possible with the level of the technology today, because a lock of hair doesn't contain the follicle but only dead cells where the nucleus has already disintegrated and broken apart. In order to clone someone, at the level of technology is now, you need to have an intact nucleus which you can insert into an unfertilized egg. Even with the hair follicle you will have quite a bit of trouble since the cell is already specialized and it is hard to get it to specialize without making a lot of mistakes, and what do you do with all those in the case of a human being? The science is improving so this is not a definitely not but a definitely not now. Sorry.
Yes. The light just needs to be within the light spectrum that the plant can use, which is dependent on its accessory pigments. Land plants will generally survive in anything other than green light. And who said flames don't generate UV light? Some fire detectors are based on detecting the emission of UV.
