Soaker hoses


The few soaker hoses I've tried all seem to leak 80% of the water in the first 20% of the hose length. Does anyone have any recommendations for a good quality soaker hose that waters evenly across it's length?

short runs


Hi;
I use soaker hoses to water field grown landscape plants.
I find useing a large main waterline 1" and 35' and shorter soaker hoses work the best. I add soaker hoses till my last hose starts show lack of water.
I am not watering my plants around my house this way just field row crops .
