DripZone Layout Desk

Size beds, tape, emitters, and zones from real geometry—then leave with hydraulic checks, pump matches, shopping quantities, and laminated run-time cards before you cut a single foot of poly.

Field tools on the desk

Six stations that keep poly, fittings, and pump math in one place.

01

Site & block geometry builder

Name garden sites, add blocks, and lock bed length, width, rows, spacing, and headlands. Duplicate a block to clone succession plantings without retyping a single dimension.

02

Crop water-class assigner

Pin leafy greens, brassicas, nightshades, cucurbits, roots, alliums, herbs, or berries—each carrying peak daily inches, preferred emitter pitch, and max zone runtime hints—to every bed.

03

Tape layout & hydraulics board

Pick wall mil, pitch, and GPH; auto-build laterals and waste-factor footage. Group zones, chart friction loss versus length, and see pressure drop before you buy fittings.

04

Supply matcher & run-time cards

Enter well/pump GPM and PSI; flag overloaded zones, sequence watering order, set filter mesh and regulators, then export soil- and climate-tuned minutes-per-zone PDF cards.

05

Materials takeoff & fitting bay

Roll tape into standard rolls plus tees, elbows, stakes, filters, and backflow notes. Checklist mode for the supply-house run; deep-link any line into offline header sketches.

Design compare & field widget

Save two variants side-by-side on total GPM, tape feet, and weekly volume. Pin the next zone name and run minutes on the Home Screen for lock-screen glances in the field.

Why this desk exists

Design once. Water evenly. Buy the right poly.

DripZone Layout Desk is the design-and-calculate workbench built for market gardeners, CSA growers, and small-acreage vegetable farmers who cannot afford uneven moisture or a second trip for the wrong tape. Enter block dimensions, row counts, and headland offsets; pin crop water classes from a seeded library of greens, brassicas, nightshades, cucurbits, roots, alliums, herbs, and berries; then let the layout engine compute laterals, emitter counts, waste-factor footage, and end-cap allowances.

Group beds into named zones, sum GPM against seeded friction tables, flag anything that exceeds your well or pump, and walk out with manifold diameter suggestions, filter mesh ratings, regulator setpoints, a full materials takeoff, and multi-page PDF run-time cards tuned to soil texture and climate-band ET—so you buy once and water evenly.
