      3. After the trees come out in the spring

         1. Sprayed more as needed

Watering

1. When

2. Each tree is watered by four .5GPH drip stakes inserted into the root ball.

   1. Watering occurs 4 times a day at 8am, 11am, 2pm, and 4pm.

   2. Each watering session is for 6 minutes long which releases 125 mL of nutrient rich water

      1. 3000mL a day or .79 gal

   3. If needed another watering session is added on hot days or taken away as needed

   1. Jack’s Nutrients, Part A, Part B and Bloom boost

      1. On the irrigation manifold

         1. From water entrance to water exit

            1. Well

            2. 35 psi Pressure regulator

            3. Galcon 9001BT timer

      5. My Grandfather used a 20-20-20 slow release fertilizer which worked well. I had switched it to inline nutrients so I have more control over the feeding program

      6. After the trees are moved I mix a bleach solution and and feed it thorugh the irrigation lines to kill any algae or growth within the lines before winter.
