I'm interested in learning more about rain water collection systems for two purposes. One, we have rain water dumping from our warehouse roof onto the ground and we're getting ready to plumb it into the storm sewer with a project this winter. But it got me thinking, can't I use this water for hydroseeding, fertilizing/weed control applications and irrigating plants we have in our holding area?

How would I size my water storage tank and what type of system would I need to build to pump water for these various needs. If anyone has experience with these I'd be interested in learning as much as possible.

As well, I could see the potential for offering this type of installation for homeowners. If anyone has installed one of these for homeowners I'd like to know more about the type of system and how effective it has been and the customer's impressions.
