let’s take a look at a soaker hose drip system, installed for a large home garden. Soaker hose and source hose cutting, adding adaptors and stringing the whole system. Let’s take a quick look at the timer set up and talk about this particular kit I trialed the Gardeners Supply “Snip N Drip” soaker hose irrigation system last year and have now installed it in my inground and above ground garden beds.
I am NOT spondered by Gardeners Supply (hit me up guys!) here is a link to the kit on the website (also available via Amazon)

We actually eneded up using 5 kits for approx 1800 square feet of garden space @ $45 per kit (May of 2023) however it saves more than 80% of the used water, so you lose less to evaporation and the plants are happier being watered at their roots so IMO the kits pay for themselves.

That hose setup looks like something I could use. Thanks for the demonstration.
Cool intro s ! pretty cool , turn it on n lets see how much water comes out ? TY
One day I will do a system like this. I'm so stubborn. I'm just set in my ways to irrigation the old fashioned, time wasting, walking with the hose and wand way.
Nice little system..❤
👍👍, Good job, Martha. My problem in Garden 2 . The soaker evaporate too fast in my desert climate.
You have a nice large set up for residential, that's a really nice kit, I have a bunch of dripline tubbing and connections just waiting to be used, I've just been super busy and have been under the weather for this past week.
That does look like a really good system, especially with those snap-together connectors, very convenient.
