For my plants that cannot be reached by a hose I use 1 or 5 gallon buckets. If you accept a riding mower you tin can get a little trailer, put the buckets in, fill up them, and then drive where y'all demand to. Or, if the back holding is not greatly uphill from the water source, a bunch of hoses should still work.

get a few 200 gallon totes from a bakery like little debbies for nether $100 each build a rain catchment arrangement to channel the water into your tote. A lean to or a shed will work well and provide some storage besides. 1 or 2 good storms should fill the containers. One inch of rainfall equals 4.vii gallons of water per square yard Last edited by gunslinger256; 11-18-2015 at x:25 PM..

The equation for elevation of water is , Each pes of elevation change is equal to 0.433 PSI, then the mathematics for 600 feet would be 259.viii PSI water pump ...... maybe a well pump would handle this

The property I have in listen actually does slope down from the dorsum of the firm. And then water would flow naturally the direction I would want.

I take a big 25 gal herbicide tank that pulls behind my mower, I took the weak stock pump off of it and replaced information technology with a high flow pump from Harbor Freight. Works similar a charm!

That makes it really easy then. Either cord together a agglomeration of hoses or use some pvc pipe to accept the h2o down where y'all need information technology. I'd just use the hoses.
