Who wants to help me save my marriage... I am attempting to use a 1500 gallon water tank to water plants at our nursery. I was planning on attaching a jet pump to the opening at the bottom and then running a 100' hose from the pump to anywhere I needed to water. The problem I have is this: what size pump would I need to move water up 8' (to get over a rock wall) and then 100' but still have a flow rate of about 7-10 gallons. I am hoping to get about 2-3 hours of watering out of the tank, thus alleviating some of the watering burden I place on my wife, thus elevating her mood, which I assume will result in less friction in our marriage...so in a sense if you have any ideas whatsoever about this, you would be basically saving my marriage...or seriously helping me to avoid a highly upset wife who spent 8 hours watering plants...I also understand that I would be unable to shut off the water at the hose end...because it mess up the pump...any help is much appreciated...if I can do this for her...it would be huge...Thanks for your help.
