Pressure tank with 40/60 pressure switch to pump start relay to submersible
pump, maybe 1.5hp, maybe 2hp

We want to add some irrigation to foundation plantings. The well output
exceeds the water needs. How do we stop pump cycling?

Thanks

You can't stop pump cycling, only reduce the frequency.

Start by checking your tank bladder for proper inflation.

Actually, you can, with a cycle stop valve:

It throttles the flow of water from the well to maintain a constant
pressure.
