We have been using a timed drip system for years and simply think it is the 
most effective and efficient mode of watering.  My husband installed it 
several years ago.  It also helps eliminate weeds by directing the water to 
each plant.  We have soaker drips on potatoes and beans, others are 
individual drips to each plant.  We also have drip systems throughout our 
yard including on each of the 70+ rose buses, 18 lavenders plus other herbs, 
not to mention all the numerous large hanging basket/gardens.  In the hanging 
baskets and tiered planters we have a circle soaker and or spray.

I do hope this is some minute assistance.  I have nothing much negative 
accept the gardener's weed-whacker has taken out a few tubes as does freezing 
weather.  One must do a maintenance update each Spring.
