Watered about 40 gallons per plant today. I dug my hand into my soft dirt about two feet from the stump to see if I had roots out that far yet (I really thought that I would by now) and I didn't find any. No big surprise considering that the ground was bone dry. Sometimes I'm such an idiot. What kind of person keeps making stupid mistakes nine years in a row? The kind who doesn't keep meticulous records, so hopefully this journalistic experience will help me next year. So, in retrospect, I'd say that the ground should be drenched--and I mean DRENCHED--in a 3' circle 1 week after planting and repeat twice a week in ever increasing circles so that 4 weeks after planting it's a 4' circle, 5 weeks, 5'--something like that
