I was wondering whether heat and cold would be enough to stretch it or shrink it noticeably.

That 6" shrinkage - is that over a 200' row, or 100', or 50'? I think that would be 1/4% or 1/2% or 11% shrinkage.

I started a "drip tape stretch" thread:
The thread "Does drip tape stretch and shrink in length overnight?" in Ask a Question forum

or the "6" might have already been edited out.

Just because it ISN'T complicated doesn't mean I can't MAKE it complicated!
