Description

Too little water, and your trees won’t thrive and might drop their fruit. Too much, and it’s easy to flush the nutrients away from the root zone, or even kill your trees.

No matter what climate you live in, water is a major issue. But where will the water come from? How will you get it to the trees? How much do the trees need, and how often? How do you build resilience into your system right from the start? How do you grow more fruit without your water bills going through the roof?

Having the watering sorted is one of the key factors that will help you grow healthy trees and really excellent and delicious fruit. When you’ve completed this module you’ll know how to figure out your tree’s water requirements at different times of year and understand soil moisture monitoring. Best of all? You’ll be able to grow more fruit with less water, less time and less effort!
