[QUOTE="BadgeBunny, post: 2143145, member: 1242"] Ok, this may sound dumb, but ... Well I trust you guys not too make fun of me (well, not too much anyway :D) but I've thought about taking a couple of big pickle buckets, drilling holes in the bottom and about 8 inches up around all the side, fill it half with gravel and then bury it at the outside perimeter of the original hole dug to plant. Two per tree, to use to keep them watered. With odd/even watering restrictions already in place this seems to be the most efficient, least wasteful way to make sure they stay fully hydrated for the first year. (Not to mention if restrictions become more ... Ehhhh ... "restrictive" my watering system isn't quite as noticeable and hence not as likely to create problems with the ever-present neighborhood busybodies ... Comments, hints, suggestions?? Thanks, guys!
