The most important job you will have after planting is to keep plants and trees well-watered until established. This can take weeks to months to even a year! Joe Lamp’l from  Growing a Greener World shares simple steps you can do to save water while establishing your plants and trees.

Joe reviews the following watering options: hand-watering, soaker hoses, drip irrigation, overhead irrigation.

No matter what method of irrigation you’re using add timers to save time and water.

Once your plants are on their way to establishment, fertilize with Milorganite a slow-release organic-nitrogen fertilizer that won’t burn your plants.
