“Won’t kink easily” that right there given 50years of buying garden hoses has me stymied too. Have bought the “answer” to no kink hoses. The limp kind the steel kink. All have down sides.

The 7 Best Garden Hoses to Efficiently Water Your Lawn
A good garden hose should be strong and easy to use. We tested the best garden hoses to help make watering your garden less of a chore.
I read on the web so you know it’s true! that you should cover you ground with black plastic to hold the heat in the ground and the weeds down. Lay a piece of soaker hose under the black plastic and that will help hold in the water. So far so good. I bought 5 each 4inch tomato plants and planted them in my little spot that gets the best light. They have been in the ground for a little over a month now. I should be seeing fruit in a few more days on my two early girls that’s the two up front. I’m looking forward to some fresh tomatoes

Are they the "zero-G" ones with some kind of fabric cover over the rubber hose? They look kind of like an expandable hose but are not expandable? I was looking at those...
All hoses work fine when it is very warm. Temp range matters. I avoid hoses that stiffen up when it gets near freezing. I avoid the soft woven flat light weight hoses which you whip around when you turn the water up… couplings kind hurt when they fly around and hit ya. Rubber is great in warm weather and stiff as hell when cold. I spent $40 on my 100’ 5/8” hose which kinks. It’s okay i always asumme any hose I have eventually will kink. Besides it gives me elocution practice of 4 letter words as I walk down the line to unkink. I always wrangle my hoses and coil them

Don't screw around with homeowner grade/ big box stuff.
This will outlast you...
Right on!!
It may outlast me, but it looks like it takes two men and a boy to haul it around the yard. Ever since Trump deported my Mexicans I have to do the yard work myself.
Any regular old run of the mill dude can easily move that, and if you can't...well you probably should seek out the assisted care living type place...and certainly should not be wading a river, or riding a bike.
Cover with mesh if you canI have a bumper crop of strawberries.
The problem is the f....ing squirrels are eating them all while still green.
HELP..
My issue this year is bunnies
First time ever
My dog is 4 for 4 so maybe it’ll work out
Well my killer cat died 2 months ago
He killed everything (bless him)
I have 2 in training but they aren’t ready
My old man dog is stepping up
Very impressive watching the old guy chase them down
