Watering system - question about pressure etc

Hi

I have installed an irrigation system and a timer

And it works well, but it doesnt give enough pressure to water all the plants

I am after a solution to fix that problem. I have thought on buying a tap splitter (https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0928PPNQB/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?smid=A2LJPPH2KNK0DX&psc=1) and in each of the edges, put a timer and an irrigation system, so each of them will cover half side of the garden.

If i set one to start at 8pm for example, and the other at 8.30pm, each of them will (hopefully) have enough pressure.

Is this the best solution i can have? Would you recommend any other solution?

Thanks

    I had a similar setup years ago but without the timers.
    I have the same convertor as you too.
    I'd do 1 side of the garden at a time because the pressure was too low do do both sides at once - it worked well.

    Thanks Pete. I think adding a pump will be more expensive and it would be an overkill right?
