Do you live in a hard water area and use soaker hoses to irrigate your garden area? Do the pores plug up with mineral deposits after a few months and then not ooze water where you want it? Try punching holes in the hoses with the finest needle you can find in the exact places you want it to water a plant. The finest needles are hypodermic needles but these are hard to come by.
If you have a diabetic friend who takes insulin maybe you could get a needle from him or her or maybe someone who works in a hospital could get a short 22 guage needle for you. Your vet would be another source.
Sterilize a used needle first by soaking in 1 tsp. bleach in 1 cup water for 1 hour and rinse thoroughly. BE CAREFUL! It's easy to puncture a finger with these and keep them away from children.
