5/16 ?'s on a layout/capacity

[ctjim]

i'm in the process of setting up a place i got to tap thats basically someones yard its sloped and on 1 side i already set up a mainline w/ about 50taps, but a driveway seperates the slopes. however the other side has an additional 25-30 tappable trees w/ a decent slope. my idea here was to run a section of supported 5/16 about 70ft across the bottom of the slope and then run some laterals off of it, basically another main w/ laterals only using 5/16 tubing for the entire set up. my main ? is can the 5/16 handle the volume of about 30taps if i use it like a main and laterals? thanks for any help, jim

if yor going to use gravity it should handle 30 taps. im setting mine up like that. if its vacuum "strive for 5" 5-7 taps or less per pateral and 5% slope or more.
