Need advice for raised garden bed irrigation

Hi

In the fall, I built 6 raised garden beds. I plan to utilize them for vegetables only. Based on my research, it appears a drip line system with a timer is probably my best irrigation approach.

My garden beds run down a slope, so the last bed is approximately 5' lower than the first bed. (See the picture.)

My main question is, due to the difference in elevation, do I need to run multiple main lines from the faucet so I can water them separately, or can I use a single main line and water all of the beds at the same time.

I wasn't sure if a drip line system would water everything evenly with the elevation difference.

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks
Lloyd
