I have a beautiful tree and wanted to know how much water to give a tree like this and how often?

We water every two days and we actually pour about 64 ounces of water (very slowly) and let the excess come out. We nearly lost our tree as initially we poured the water very fast and the water simply was running off the surace. Tree was not getting enough and leaves were dropping like crazy. Finally we found that slow and deliberate watering every other day worked and our tree reinvigored itself with plenty of new leaves.

Hi I have only had mine for about a year and we have feed about 6 trees. So far so good. I really do like this type of system as it works well on watering the rooting system of the trees as our yard has a lot of clay that seems to not take the water to the roots. Good luck.

Depends on the amount of light it's getting/temperature/humidity of the environment. I was going between once per day to 2 or 3 times per day. You don't want the soil to ever completely dry out, so as soon as the top inch of the soil is dry, water it. Water it evenly and enough so that the water is draining out of the bottom.

Use about a tbsp per gallon of water and then water on the ground. It won't burn the leaves, but it won't be effective anywhere except on the roots.

Normal amount of water but do not let it dry out .too much water turns the leaves yellow and fall off

Hi, I have 8 elm trees, so I buy one gallon and split it evenly among all of them.I pour the amount at the base of each tree then apply water with a hose so that it seeps down to the roots. The result is very green healthy trees free of bugs. I use it straight out of the bottle.

Hi Steve: I live in Southern CA, so we get very little rain. Your response would also depend on whether or not the plant requires a more moist environment or if it should dry out between watering. So to maintain moisture in-between watering, I would recommend a 22 inch saucer. If it's a plant that needs to dry out between watering, you may want to consider not purchasing a saucer at all as too much water may potentially kill your plant. Good luck!

I water like you would any other plant and once in a while put some plant food in the water. I also have it in a planter where you can put water in the bottom part and the plant will use it as needed but must say it drinks up a lot of water. The plant has grown to almost double the size in a couple months.

I use water from the tap, nothing special. I just keep the vase filled with water. When I notice it is low I add more water, usually about once a month.

Janet: I purchased this tree earlier in the year and planted it in large pot in the yard. It's doing well but I know it will take a couple of years to bear fruit. You should feel confident in placing it in a pot. Laura

I used a 6 inch wide pot, water it once a week with diluted tea water and it's doing awesome, lots of new leaves!

Like many websites I've read and actual advice included with the tree, it suggests 2-2.5 hours of direct sunlight a day. If you have that tempered glass in your home that isn't direct sunlight. Simply place it outside during your work day and it will be fine. I live in Arizona and its fine even in this heat during the heat...in fact I think it likes the heat.

Yes. It only waters once a day but you can set it to water for how long a period - 10 minutes or more (up to an hour a day, an hour every other day or 90 minutes every third day). We planted a lot of new holly bushes and Leyland cypress and this automatic timer did a great job of watering them until they were well established without the hassle of remembering to turn the water off/on.

You'll probably have to water it once a week. I had mine out on my deck that was covered in SC. I had to water it every few days.

I would say depending on how often it has rained, I would water it at least once a week. check on it though, if it looks as though it needs water more often than that then I would water it twice a week instead. make sure that it is well established in the area that you decide, or have already decided to plant it at. I hope that this helps you out. thank you very much, rennea Esposito burgess. 863-683-8711. I have one of these myself. it is very little. about 10 inches tall. I think in the beginning you may want to water it a little more, but just do not over water it. thanks again, rennea. I hope that you have the very best of luck with it. they are very beautiful vines. rennea.

My lemon tree is only about 2 ft. tall and has been inside all winter. I added 1 3/4C. Jobe's fertilizer and watered it well. that was two days ago and it appears to be doing very well. Because my tree has been inside I have been misting the leaves every day. It had about 50 blossoms on it and is very healthy. I hope to plant it in the ground in April or May.,

It is a tree and should survive texas heat. They are shipped from Florida so similar weather. Sad to say my tree did not survive. I think it was something I did though because the tree was very healthy when I got it. I don't think it got enough water. Hope this helps
