I just installed some drip lines for my South facing garden bed with Shi Shi camelias and other small shrubs. How long should I run those to get a good soak?

No one can accurately tell you this. You need to do some tests to see how long it takes the area to get appropriately moist down to the root. Could be 30 minutes, could be 2+ hours.

That would depend on the soil and how much water jour drip lines put out. Agree with gedeoux’s suggestion.
