How do you water your raised beds? Do you use the sprinkler and get several at a time (included the pathways) or do you use a sprayer at the end of the hose pipe and just do one at a time?

Water mine with a water can and rain water.....at the base. I try not to get the foliage wet. I mulch my beds so there's no possibility of spashing wet dirt up onto the plants. If I run out of rain water....I fill up 5 gal buckets with city water and let it set out in the open and sun for 24 hrs before using it.

The mulch makes watering, almost, obsolete.
