I have actually thought of soaker hose.I also thought about doing garden hose cut and spliced into 5 or 6 hoses.that way I could run 5 or 6 hoses to water landscape plants.I have thought about that just to get me by till I figure something more permanent.

I was just trying to find the DIG emitters that once upon a time could be taken apart to clean out. Alas, they current design does not seem to allow that anymore - not sure though but it does look like the same design as all the other manufacturers.
I'm in the Philippines.I am trying some container growing this year,but it will be a variation of the bio bucket.Tomatoes..peppers..etc.I really want to make my landscape watering easier tho.I have quite a few Guayabano trees...a pomegranate..and lots of basic landscape plants to keep watered.I am also along a good sized river that does flood occasionally during Typhoons.That water runs pretty fast,and I would sure hate to lose my irrigation that way.

Thanks everybody for the help.
