A quick sprinkler pass doesn't reach where your tree's roots actually are

Post Copy

Most of a mature tree's active roots sit deeper than a sprinkler cycle ever reaches. Deep root watering gets moisture down to where it counts, slowly, so it soaks in instead of running off.

This matters most for young trees still establishing their root system, but even mature trees can stress during a long dry stretch like Middle Tennessee sees most summers.

Noticed any wilting or leaf drop in your yard lately?
