2026 Outdoor Living and Landscaping Trends to Transform Your Backyard
Feb 5th 2026
Watering a massive garden by hand can take hours every day. The Large Garden Bed Drip Irrigation Kit is the complete, high-capacity solution designed to automatically water up to 18 raised beds (4' x 8') with zero hassle. This comprehensive package includes upgraded 3/4" tubing and fittings to ensure maximum water flow across larger distances, allowing you to open the box and start building immediately. Designed for the easiest setup possible, it requires no glue, clamps, or complicated tools—our "Easy Loc" fittings simply push and twist to lock.
This easy-to-install DIY kit promotes healthier plants using 600 feet of included Soaker Dripline, which delivers water slowly directly to the roots to keep foliage dry and disease-free. The system is flexible and forgiving, perfect for square foot gardening with simple push-in fittings to navigate corners easily.
We have pre-calculated the components so you don't have to; simply snap the parts together to ensure every plant receives uniform hydration. Most gardeners prefer to keep their hose available for other tasks, so we highly recommend adding a Brass Y-Splitter to your order so you can run your irrigation system and your garden hose simultaneously.
This system connects easily to any standard outdoor hose faucet.
Step 1: The Header (Faucet Assembly)
If you purchased the kit With Timer, attach the Timer to the faucet first. Next, simply screw on the Filter, then the Pressure Regulator, and finally the Easy Loc Female Hose Start. This entire assembly is commonly referred to as the "Header."
Step 2: Lay the Mainline
Run the 3/4" Mainline Tubing from the Header to the perimeter of your garden beds. Use the Easy Loc Tee or Coupler to split or extend the line if needed. Close the end with a simple Easy Loc End Cap.
Step 3: Connect the Beds
Use the included Punch N' Cut Tool to easily punch a hole in the Mainline. Insert a 1/4" Transfer Barb and attach the 1/4" Micro Tubing to run up into the raised bed.
Step 4: Layout the Dripline
Inside the bed, connect the 1/4" Soaker Dripline to the Micro Tubing. You can run the dripline in rows or snake it around your plants (typically 12" apart). The line is flexible, so your rows do not have to be perfectly straight. Secure it with the Hold Down Stakes.

Is this kit easy to install?
Yes! This kit is designed specifically for simple DIY installation. It requires no glue or special tools (other than the included punch). Most users can install it in under an hour.
Can I connect this to a timer?
Absolutely. You can attach any standard hose faucet timer directly to the faucet before the filter assembly. For this high-capacity kit, we recommend a High Flow Timer to ensure adequate water volume.
Does this work for flowers and vegetables?
Yes. The 1/4" Soaker Dripline is perfect for rows of vegetables, flower beds, and dense planting areas. It provides gentle, uniform moisture ideal for root health.
Is it expandable?
While this kit is designed as a complete system for up to 18 beds, you can customize the layout. However, since this kit already maxes out the typical capacity of a single hose faucet zone (approx. 600 GPH), we do not recommend expanding it significantly further without adding another zone or checking your flow rate.

"Don't waste time with box store junk"
"Honestly, just buy the DripWorks kit. I tried piecing it together myself with parts from [Big Box Store] and it leaked everywhere. The DripWorks tubing is legit commercial quality and the fittings actually lock tight. Setup took me maybe 45 minutes for 4 beds."

"Customer service is a lifesaver"
"I was intimidated by drip irrigation, but this kit made it so simple. The best part? I actually called them when I wasn't sure about my faucet pressure, and a real person helped me figure it out in 5 minutes. You don't get that on Amazon."
- Sarah M., Google Reviews
"Solid kit for homesteading"
"I upgraded to the large kit for my homestead. The 3/4 inch tubing makes a huge difference in pressure over long runs compared to the smaller lines. It's built to last."
