We spent a lot of time and money on an irrigation system for our garden. It involves a complicated arrangement of black pvc pipe with t-tape coming off the nozzles at each row, and turn-off valves for each nozzle as well as for various zones, so we can control what gets watered when. We have been running the system during the night so that the hot sun doesn't crack the tape when the cold well water flows through it, using low pressure, but it doesn't seem to moisten much more than just the area directly under the tape. As a result we're back to an oscillating sprinkler to make sure the garden gets enough water. Does anyone else have that sort of system and do you have any better luck with it?
