Any thing like that? i tried using siphoning but it was kinda messy.
Watering hard to reach plants

Of course!! It's called siphoning. Just make sure the bucket is higher than your plant pots. Then connect a tube, suck on it to start the fluid, but once it flows let it go. I have one connected to a valve that adjusts on or off, so I constantly have fluid in there so no more sucking with syringe.
You can use any tube, I think 1/4 in works best cuz it holds water in it with the valve closed, 1/2 is kinda fast and water wont be able to stay in there. Up to you tho.
Another method is just use a water pump with an on off switch. Make sure you clean it everytime. I go against this method as magnetic drive pumps sometimes remove iron from the solution.

oh shit sorry didnt read ur last line hahahah. okay then try the pump i guess. or I think there is this thing where u can spray shit you pump it up and wear it on your back or whatnot. it stays pressurized but i think you can put another nozzle to make it flow smoother. im not sure.
Get yourself a "garden sprayer."
They pump up and have a hose and wand that makes it real easy to reach plants.

You can create a water transfer system with pvc I have a video I made showing how to do it and what supplies to buy. Everything is like 8$ cut my watering time from 2 hours to 20 mins I had to move all my plants like u are saying.
