Cool, I just setup irrigation in my tents too. Hella better and my back is thanking me. For my 3x3 I'm running 2x 400gph pumps on 9plants with 2 emitters (sprinkler style) in each pot. Hooked up to a 3/8" main line to 1/4" dual distribution 'manifolds'. One each pot. Just the cheapy one off Amazon but it works great.
For my 5x5 I'm in the process of plumbing 1/2" pvc on a 1300gph sump pump to 4 orbit 8 site distribution manifolds on 12 plants. They run on a repeat cycle timer (day mode only) and drain to waste directly plumbed to my drain.
Plumbing is fun! Lol
