Watering & Care Instructions for New Trees

Overview: Consistent and appropriate watering is vital, especially during the first two years:
Initial Watering: Right after planting, water the tree thoroughly to settle the soil around the roots.
First Few Weeks: Water daily for the first 1–2 weeks after planting to keep the root ball moist.
Following Weeks/Months: Apply 5 gallons of water per week, ensuring deep soil penetration.
Method: Use a 5-gallon bucket with holes to allow water to seep slowly into the soil.
Monitoring: Check soil moisture by digging a few inches below the surface; water when the soil feels dry.
Overwatering: Overwatering can be as detrimental as underwatering. Ensure the soil is moist but not waterlogged.
