Hello guys I have been reading this site for awhile now and I know somebody must have some information out there to help me. I am putting in a garden that is a ways from my house. I need to build a tank on a trailer that I can take the water from the house to the garden. Which should not be to hard. But then what I want to know is the best way to water the garden. Can I do it with a small 12 volt pump to spray the water? such as one from Northern Tool because I could just hook that up to the BX. But how much preasure would I need on the pump to run a sprinkler. Any ideas would be a great help.

I'm into CHEAP, so I'd try to find a stock tank or plastic tank from an ag supply place, and strap it to a trailer. Get whichever is cheapest.

Take out the drain or bung, and plumb up a hose. Let gravity pump it and park on the high side of the garden. You could hook up a long soaker hose and just let it run til empty, while you do something else.

My two cents.
