Hey all, this is my first post. I've used Davesgarden for years for help with literally everything garden related.
This is the first year we have tried raised row beds instead of just flat beds. I've really enjoyed it so far. This year has been great because we had a very wet spring and the raised rows helped keep the transplants a little drier. We reinstalled the soaker hoses last week but I'm confused. Is it more effective to have the soaker hoses in the trench or should it up up next to the plants. I've tried both and honestly really couldn't tell a difference currently, though I just use the stick my finger down to the knuckle and feel. I'm not sure if later on in the season if you should water the trench to get the water deep down.
