ᐅ Hedge irrigation – which system would you recommend?

The description only mentions delivery in the pot.
Why is that important?

Well, they are easier to propagate. There is soil around them. Just pull them out of the pot, plant them in the ground, press the soil lightly all around, water briefly, and that's it. Bare-root plants need to be planted with potting soil; otherwise, they won't take root.

Thanks, I hadn’t thought of that at all, but what does that have to do with the question about the irrigation system?

You could skip this for container-grown plants. Just water them occasionally with a hose during dry weather.

Last year, we planted 130 European beech trees, bare-rooted. The planting distance is about 33 cm (13 inches), and I used a soaker hose from Gardena. Strictly speaking, I had to use two pieces because they are only sold in lengths of 25 or 30 meters (82 or 98 feet). It works quite well in principle. I believe it is actually beneficial if the area between the plants is also watered. According to the nursery, this stimulates root growth.

However, during the first summer, I either didn’t need to water at all because it rained, or the weather was so hot and windy that the new lawn had to be watered once or twice a day. In those cases, I simply used the garden hose to water everything.

The answer was given to you by @Nordlys. Irrigation issues start at the roots, not at the top.
