How Much Water Do Soaker Hoses Use Per Hour ~ Tested

[@TopCat2021]

Great video,I’ve often wondered how much the output was. I use soaker hoses that I modify with cheap hose between breaks for areas that I don’t want watered. I’ve always used quarter turn inline valves to control flow,I’ll open the valve and close it until the hose is just barely sweating. I also cover my hoses with mulch to direct the water to the roots. Thanks for sharing the video.

love this comment! Thanks for sharing your setup. The solid hose between sections is awesome, super precise. You should consider some time adding a 10 PSI fitting leading into the soaker. That has allowed my soakers to hold up really for multiple seasons while improving the consistency of the weep.
