Pressure compensated drippers maintain the flow rate over the system providing even watering. Drippers insert directly into the lateral supply pipe or at the end of the 4mm micro pipe coming off the supply pipe. Alternatively, they come on inline or end of line spikes which can be inserted at the base of the plants. In-line drippers are connected with a 4mm micro pipe, in a daisy chain effect. End-of-line drippers will be connected at the end of the 4mm micro pipe. Separate stakes and extension pieces are not usually required for drippers.
