Do you worry that your new tree won't last the first year? Are
you unsure how to take care of your new tree and protect your
investment in time and effort? If you aren't, then you should be.
Far too many young trees die in the first year from improper care
that is easily preventable.
Newly planted trees are under severe water stress right after
transplanting. And they will remain under water stress for the
first several years after planting. Maintaining soil moisture is
especially important during the first three years following
transplanting. So how do you prevent transplant shock and avoid
water stress on new trees? The answer is simple, Treegator®
slow release watering system for trees. Treegator delivers a high
volume of water directly to the root system of a newly planted
tree.
Water Your Trees, Don't Drown
Them
Treegator is a drip irrigation system in a bag. These
easy-to-use tree watering bags are designed specifically for trees,
to slowly deliver water directly to their root systems over an
extended time period; Allows for deep water saturation with no
run-off or evaporation. TreeGator is especially valuable for new
plantings, and for soaking before digging, or when water is
precious during summer droughts. Saves time and water, reduces
transplant shock.
TreeGator can also provide additional protection from an early
or late frost. During Spring and Fall when many trees are planted,
frost damage can be a real issue. The constant moisture TreeGator
provides to the soil helps dampen rapid temperature changes and
prevents frost damage.
Installation is easy and requires no tools - just zip it around
the trunk, fill it with water, and walk away. Simply put, Treegator
is the fastest, easiest, and most efficient product available to
properly water a new tree. Using Treegator will save you time,
water, money and effort - All while keeping your trees healthy and
green.

Just 5 Minutes Each Week That's all
the time it will take you to properly and efficiently water your
trees. Installing and filling a Treegator Original or Treegator
Junior Drip Irrigation Bag takes about 5 minutes with a standard
size garden hose. Since Treegator delivers a large volume of water
deep below the soil surface, a tree's roots can potentially feed
off of this high concentration of water long after the bag is
empty. That means you can water less frequently. In most cases, you
only need to water once a week for healthy, happy trees.
Installation is easy, just zip TreeGator around your tree, fill
with water, and let Treegator drip water to your tree for up to
nine hours. Treegators can be zipped together (two hold 50 gallons)
and used in pairs for larger trees. One Treegator fits 1-4"
caliper(diameter) tree; two zipped together fit 5-8" caliper trees.
For most new plantings, Treegator needs to be filled only 1 to 2
times per week (adjust watering schedule as needed).
Why should I use Treegator on my
trees:
Newly planted / transplanted trees, with their greatly reduced
root systems and the shock from being removed, are in great need of
frequently applied deep irrigation. Deep watering keeps moisture
concentrations far below the surface, reducing transplant shock,
and attracting roots downward deep into the soil.
Deep watering to a depth of at least 12 inches or more is
recommended. Most of the root system of a tree is located within
the top 2 to 4 feet of soil. With new trees, it is also recommended
that water be applied directly over the root ball / root mass.
Experts suggest that the best way to efficiently ensure deep
water penetration is to slowly and evenly apply a high volume of
water in a single application. This means that light watering
applications (i.e. via sprinklers, hose, etc.) will not provide
adequate water saturation.
