The fact is when trees are first planted, the roots a traditionally located within the root ball. So the tree need to be watered in a way to encourage for it to extend its roots outside the original root ball, to become firmly established within the soil around the tree itself.

With the new tree, watering the dirt/soil under its canopy will not only keep the soil moist but will also promote healthy growth among the tree roots.

If there is however a rain one day during the week this could be counted towards the minimum number each week.
