Just turn the key to on, let the fuel pump prime (having it unhooked from the fuel rail) and when it is done priming turn it off. Repeat.

That works. Not sure about the garden hose but a 3/8 clear tubing worked for me.

Last time I heard someone needing to do this it was because they were going to transport the car by ship and they would not take a car with a full tank due to security reasons in case of any accidents.
