Collect water from a tip randomly and several for that time it took to travel X amount of feet based in tip spacing. The amount of water you caught is how much water you are putting down per acre.

You know, its funny how when somebody does something for a living, they explain it like its really easy. I was lost after the first sentence. I would probably have to forget two or three other things to remember that process. I burnt up a bunch of braincells in my 20s. I gotta be really careful about how hard i strain the ones i have left.
