the irrigation soaker is great at one end .. sprays nicely .. and at the
other end.. well it just kind of leaks out.. (in my opinion: worthless)
as for the bleader type .. that sounds like it might work, but i'd have
to just run several of them .. since all they would do is just, well
bleed the water out.. and the area is about 4 feet wide..
i do thank you for the ideas though..



Bleeding type saturate the ground eventually at least to a few feet in
each direction. I use a 50' length to water an area about 8 feet wide and
25 feet long. I run it at low flow for 2-4 hours depending on how much I
want to water. I have clay soil. If you have sandy soil maybe it will
not diffuse much.
