You can run the soaker hose for 10 min and do more good than hand watering, but reserve the hand watering for tuff spots. Soaker hoses come in several fashions from nylon to rubber, THEY ALL straighten and become rigid with water in them, or disburse the water flo uneven-as in, less water at the end than the beginning. A way to break down the hoses into shorter lengths and multiple hoses can be done with pvc pipe and timers,- my dad uses a remote control timer on his raised bed, dunno if I have a pic...how much are you watering that you need a lot of water bananna18? Ha! a pic! he even does the raspberries in ground this way...
