Has anybody thought about this or tired it? what am I missing? Do you think it will work or not?
My place is 1 mile deep by a half mile wide. I have a well in the middle and one about a quarter mile in from the front, not counting the house well that I could use as well if needed.
Soaker hose is about $50 for 250 ft. If I buy 2 miles of it I would be at about $1100. I think I could cover a big chunk of the place by snaking it through the pastures and moving it around like a K-line. You wouldnt get the same coverage by length as a K-line, but I think you would get better coverage by investment and could do it with lower waterpressure.
What are your thoughts. Thats still a big chunk to invest in something that winds up not helping at all.
