That would lower the pressure.
The best solution would be to find a solution that works with low pressure (larger holes and increasing in size along the length of the hose to account for the pressure drop of each hole).

What I meant was that you split the garden into two and have a barrel or a tank for each half and not split the pressure
That doesn't help. If you double your capacity with a second tank, you have the same pressure. If you have two tanks with the same total capacity, you have even less pressure.
In either case, it's not going to come out of any normal soaker hose or drip irrigation system.
The only way to get more pressure would be to have more water capacity. It's the weight of the water that is supplying the pressure.
How much water is needed to get an acceptable pressure? I don't know, but I can tell you that 305 US gallons is not even close to enough.
Nature optimized for low pressure, like blood flow through arteries.
Soluciones con bajo flujo, como aumentar el tamaño de los orificios, pueden reducir presión. Un estudio encontró que cada 10% de aumento en el diámetro del orificio reduce la presión en un 20%.
