Watering Instructions |
| |
|
|
(The primary reasons for
failure of landscape material are
overwatering or not
watering to the depth of the root ball) |
| |
|
|
1. Select a Watering Method
that is Best for You |
|
| Oscillating sprinkler |
| Leave the sprinkler on for 2.5 to
4 hours depending on spray pattern and size of
root ball per section. Make sure to overlap each
section. |
| |
| Impact Sprinkler |
| 90 degree angle with short spray
pattern, water for 1 to 2 hours. |
| 180 degree angle water for 2-3
hours. |
| |
| Hose Trickle |
| Place the end of your garden hose
on top of the root ball and allow water to trickle
at a moderate rate for 30 minutes to an hour per
plant depending on the size of the root ball. |
| |
| Soaker Hose |
| Make sure water hits each root
ball. Also, make sure the holes are not clogged.
Let this run for 3 to 4 hours. |
| |
| Watering Can or Bucket |
| It may take 5 to 8 pails to fully
water each plant to the depth of the rootball.
Poor slowly and make an earth saucer around the
base of the plant to catch the water. |
