Hi Ryan. I'm on sand plain soil. Never get a puddle. So watering is a pain sometimes. I use a mix of drip and overhead wobblers. I use the drip on heat loving crops and I use overhead on lettuce, radish, and other cool weather crops. I'll have to check out the pulse watering. Thx

 Are you adding amendments? I recommend peat moss to retain water 

 Yeah. My soil is typically low on n, k, mg, s. I calculate mineral prescriptions and add accordingly. Also I make about 4 cubic yards of composted manure, mostly rabbit, to garden beds. There is a fair amount of peat mixed into the compost from spent microgreens trays
