I was wondering if a rainbarrel would really catch enough rain if you didn't use gutters? The barrel would have to be open top, and you'd have to put it in a place where the downpour was greatest (off the roof). Seems to me a perk would be that you wouldn't get too much gunk from stuff that usually clogs up gutters, but again, could I get enough water that way? I currently have an opportunity to make my own for about $30.
