Running hose under lawns and gardens is no trouble. Use a sharp shovel/spade
(what is the technical difference??) and cut a 4-6 inch deep v-shaped
trench.
Lay hose in trench, trim a little soil off bottom of removed "V" to prevent
squashing hose, and replace the removed soil into trench.
Give lawn a good water along trench.
Ater a day or two (or almost immediatly if grass is long) you will not see
where the hose was laid.
Ensure you make a sketch or plan of where the irrigation hose is laid to
prevent damage when digging in future.

Hi Everyone,

I am thinking about installing an automatic irrigation system. I want to
install some pop up sprinklers for my already established front lawn and
fixed sprinklers for the garden beds.. How do I run the hosing
under-ground
without damaging the lawn and the gardens?

BTW, I recently purchased the house. The gardens and lawn are about 3
months
old.

Kind Regards.
