I ran the raingutter "downspouts" into the two barrels on the ends. I didn't want cold water in the winter displacing the warm water already in the barrels. So I switched the 2" schedule 40 PVC to a flexible pipe that I can remove from the barrels and drain onto the ground in the winter if needed. Underneath my greenhouse floor I have a system of 4" perforated drains which will run the excess water about 20' downhill from the GH.
