    Hole in underground sprinkler plastic tubing
    I'm installing a do it yourself CIL sprinkler system. I've trenched it all out and placed all the plastic tubing into the ground. Turned it on and the water pressure was poor. Upon investigating I found a small gouge in the tubing, approx the size of a pencil tip. Looking for suggestions on how to fix the hole and not have to pull it all up.. thx

    Check where you bought the tubing, they may sell a splice that can fix this spot by cutting it out.
