Netafim Woodpecker Pressure Compensating Junior Dripper Assembly - 0.3 GPH - 30-in Tubing - 25 Count

Even Watering at Every Container - 0.3 GPH - 30 in Tubing

Uneven watering leaves some containers wet and others dry, and growers often overwater to compensate. This dripper stake assembly pairs a pressure compensating emitter with a check valve, so each container gets a steady, low flow and the drippers switch on and off together. The distributor lists a watering uniformity of 94%.

Each unit holds 25 assemblies. That suits a hobbyist filling a single tent or bench, and a small commercial room that wants consistent, pre-assembled plant positions without cutting and fitting parts.

Key Features & Benefits

• Pressure compensating emitter — holds a steady flow as line pressure varies within its working range.
• Built-in check valve — helps drippers shut off together at system shutdown.
• 30 inches of Super Flex UV White PE tubing — reaches the container and resists sunlight exposure.
• Angled barbed stake — holds the tubing in place and directs water into the container.
• Pre-assembled — reduces setup time per plant position.

Who Should Use Netafim Woodpecker Pressure Compensating Junior Dripper Assembly

Growers using soilless substrates, rock wool cubes, or potted plants in hydroponic systems who want precise, low-volume delivery to each container.

About Netafim Woodpecker Pressure Compensating Junior Dripper Assembly

Netafim makes this assembly with a 0.3 GPH pressure compensating emitter with CNL check valve, 30 inches of Super Flex UV White PE tubing, and an angled barbed stake. Minimum operating pressure is 10 PSI, and the distributor lists a constant flow range of 10 to 45 psi.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does pressure compensating mean?
A: A pressure compensating emitter adjusts internally so flow stays steady when line pressure changes. Every dripper on the line delivers about the same amount of water.

Q: What does the check valve do?
A: The check valve helps all drippers turn on once the system is fully pressurized and shut off together. This limits drainage and uneven watering at the start and end of a cycle.

Q: What pressure do I need?
A: The minimum operating pressure is 10 PSI. Constant flow is listed from 10 to 45 psi.

Q: What is in each assembly?
A: Each assembly has the dripper, 30 inches of Super Flex UV White PE tubing, and an angled barbed stake. A unit contains 25 assemblies.

Q: Is it suited to hydroponic setups?
A: Yes. The slow, low flow suits soilless substrates and rock wool cubes, wetting the media without run-off at the container edges.
