Soaker Hoses in Veg Garden w/ Pond Water

McKTX

Here in N. Tx we have been in a drought for several years. This year I am going to use my water change water from my koi pond to irrigate the garden. I have a 1400 gallon upright tank I pump the pond water into. First it goes thru a 100 micron filter and then then before going thru the hose to the soaker hoses, it will go thru a 200 micron filter. Currently I have about 2G per minute at the end of the hose. Will this set up work for the 25 foot and 75 foot Swan soaker hoses? Not sure there is enough water pressure to get to the end of the 75 footers. I currently have the pressure reducer disk in the hoses.

Has anyone used this kind of low water pressure with soaker hoses?
