Situation
I have about 30 taps I can add. The lateral lines will be about 200 feet (I know it is not ideal but it is the only option I have now) If I can run this all down hill to one point and then barber pole it up to my mainline (about 3' lift) will it work? I run about 22" of vac unless I spring some major leaks. I could do a sap ladder but each lateral will have no more than 15 taps on it and I feel like it will be like a small sap ladder running into a saddle. I could run a small main and then spider up, but it seems like a waste to me. Thoughts and experiences? I know I will not get sap like I would running down hill on short lateral lines but I figure a little more sap is better than no additional sap. Thanks in advance for any/all input.
