DWC Pump Question

I'm gonna be setting up a rig using the setup outlined by autotek500 in my thread here----> https://www.rollitup.org/hydroponics-aeroponics/139216-what-do-you-think-rig-2.html

My question is this... The pump I'm getting does 200 gpm. I'll be growing 3 plants using drip heads that max out @ 10 gpm. Thats only 30 gpm. What happens to the rest of the pressure? Is my pump gonna blast the drippers and end caps off? Should I be concerned that the system seems like it will only accomodate 15% of the pumps output?

Thanks for all the help... What a great community! kiss-ass

some pumps have an adjustment...you usually just spin the inlet or outlet...maybe even a little lever.....but you should just use an air pump and eliminate the top feed...less shit to worry about...for the first week just keep your container toped off...or until the roots get long enough to hang in the water..:weed:
