I thought I could rig up a system for each bed using a loop of soaker
hose attached to a 5 litre container which can be filled from the
outside path. Will there be enough pressure to 'soak'?
If you hold the container up high enough you should get a bit of water
out at about 1psig. Would probably be easier to just use a sprinkler can
or a makeshift one. Good luck. How's the weather in the UK?
We're getting temps in the low nineties F recently here in SE Texas.
We're also getting enough rain not to have to run the soaker hoses.
