[CANUFNET] TreeAzin, drought and deep-root watering?

[Giedraitis, John]

Hi Folks,

>From your cousin down south.

Texas had exceptional drought last year and we prepared these for the public. It's our "No Math Tree Watering" series.

Hey, no cracks about Texans not being able to count.


We put this video and handout together to help folks water their trees.

Does anyone know if deep-root watering will enable TreeAzin to be effective after the drought we're having in Ottawa, in case we don't get enough rain between now and the closing of the TreeAzin-effective window (end of August)?  There is a risk that we may miss the window if we don't get enough rain in the next few weeks. It would be helpful to know if anyone has any experience or seen any research on whether a deep root watering/fertilizing would be enough to make the TreeAzin injection effective in the absence of some good, long rainy days.
