I put together a system for a friend needed to top up 100s of lotus pots and all I
did was dry fit PVC and drill a hole for the water to drip not forcefully shoot out
of the hole. it works great. when she has sold enough plants she can take a 10'
section off, cap the end and water the rest.
I use soaker hoses made from recycled tires, also on very low pressure. Ingrid

Your problem was, you were operating at too high a pressure instead of too
low. At very low pressure, the flow rate approaches zero, the amount of
water lost at each emmiter becomes insignificant, and the amount of water
dripping out of each hole from end-to-end of the pipe is approximately
equal.
