I'm switching to a top water drip system vs. my previous use of a self-watering gutter system.

My question is: if i'm i'm using drip emitters in 15 gallon fabric bags - should I use multiple emitters to ensure an even watering?

What is your experience w/ using drip emitters & getting an even saturation in the bag? MY concern is using only (1) will lead to alot of wasted water that drips out of the center of the bag - leaving outer areas dry...

thanks in advance!
