i used 5 gallon containers that you can buy in lowes or home depot. they sell them as ;paint contianers. first i drilled 4 drainage holesthe size of a quarter two inches from the bottom of the container. then i drilled two holes just a bit bigger than the drainage holes as close to the top as i could ge on both sides of the container but making sure they wre in line with each other . i attached one end ofthe soaker hoseto my water timer andthen ran the hose through the holes at the top of each container.i had about 10 containers at the time. i scheduled the wter to turn on at 8 am each morning and shut off after two hours.
hope that helps. if you have any more quesitons just ask.
