I Hope I did this right

I wish I knew about this forum a few weeks ago. I re-lanscaped my yard last year, there is no grass, just dirt. I want to install a sprinkler system before I put the grass down so it can water the lawn as the grass grows. I dug my trenches and layed down 1 1/4 poly pipe. Is this pipe too big? I have 16 GPM at 60 PSI.

Thanks,
Brett

You did just fine. That diameter will be able deliver plenty of water. Now the next step is to disign your zones correctly (ie dont put to many heads per zone)
