So I have one question: are you sure it's "servo-actuated" valves or just solenoid valves?
If you're concerned with just on/off, I use solenoid valves all the time. You're really looking for low flow rates for the houseplate irrigation system, so it will be cheap too. Amazon example.
If you're actually concerned with the RATE of flow that servo valves would give you, I'd recommend that you either control the flow from the pump (modulate frequency), or use rate limiters specific to each plant. Like this will limit it to 1 gallon/hr.
it's better (and cheaper) if you can avoid those emitters though because they are not very reliable either... They get clogged up all the time for me. (talking about this: https://www.amazon.com/Rain-Bird-SW10-30PS-Irrigation-Watering/dp/B0049C76S4)
Drip irrigation.
You get a Galcon Timer which yes, it's battery-powered it used a 9-volt battery which should be replaced three times a year.
That plus a Drip Irrigation Kit and some more Drip Emitters and more Tubing and your elbows and your t-fittings is basically all you need to build out an irrigation system.
You may want a few landscape stakes to hold the tubing in placewhile you setup the system.
Have you just drilled holes for water, or have you actually added in drip irrigation heads? The heads will help prevent oddities in water pressure and will better regulate everything. You can even pair them with 1/4 tubing and couplings to get the water where you want it to go. In my experience, the heads are better than the soaker hoses.
