The final product, where I add water into the pipe every couple of days and have the water drain deep into the soil.
I decided to wrap the perforated drain pipe in landscape fabric to help prevent dirt from filling up the tube.
Cut a roughly 25 inch (2 foot plus 1 inch) length of the perforated pipe. The goal is to have the pipe stick out of the ground a little bit, so it may depend on how deep a hole you dig.
