REMIAWY Tree Watering Bag 20 Gallon Watering Bag for Trees with Heavy Duty Zipper Premium PVC Tree Bags Slow Release Drippers Bag for Trees (2 Pack 5-8 Hours Releasing Time)

The moisture and humidity from the bag sweating clung to the trunk. I'd buy these if you can guarantee that you'll remove them and only water them in the morning. If at all possible, I'd prefer the tree diaper/donut! br>br>When we finished building our house last fall, we planted five maple trees and a tulip tree. Until we had a few days of extreme heat, the trees looked fantastic. We've had a wet and chilly summer so far, so I knew we'd be in trouble if they couldn't handle a few days of heat, so I decided to give these a try to keep them hydrated. br>br>Every day after work, my husband watered the trees, and it was nearly impossible to properly water that many trees with a deep watering. Even if a sprinkler was left on all day, most of the water would run off or evaporate before it reached the ground (morning or evening). It was great for the grass, but not so much for the trees. br>br>I've noticed that rips and tears have been a common complaint. That hasn't been an issue with mine. The zipper is strong and reliable. Although the material resembles a tent floor, it serves its purpose. Ours took about 10 hours to empty from full, with the majority of the soil being heavy clay and shale. The water did not run off and instead went straight down into the ground, exactly where we wanted it. It didn't even get the trunks wet, which is fantastic. br>br>One point to consider: Because reviews said it didn't work on a hill, I was hesitant to try it. It does, in fact, work on hills, as I can attest to. Three of our trees are on a fairly steep incline in front of our house, and if you read the instructions (gasp! ), they can be pruned. The zipper should be placed on the uphill side of the trunk and away from the water, according to the instructions. Once the bag has a little water in it, I simply try to position it to take some weight off the downhill side by moving the bag a little higher up the uphill side until the downhill side touches the trunk, and everything is fine.

When you have young trees, these bags come in handy. br>br>We have three young oak trees that we are using these on. I like that I can fill the bag with water and the tree will be watered over time. br>br>I originally bought these because my husband forgot to water the trees while I was gone, and when I returned, one of them had died. These helped me bring my tree back to life, and they've been great since then for ensuring they're getting enough water when it gets hot outside (Southeast Texas). These won't catch rainwater. br>br> br>br>Once removed from the tree, they are difficult to drain; you must air them out and hang them upside down for several hours to drain them before storing them. The outside of the bags is easy to clean. If you don't have a sprinkler system or one that focuses on trees, this is a great alternative.

My old TreeGators watering bags were in need of replacement. I bought the originals the first time and they worked fine; they just needed to be replaced after a few seasons of use in an open environment. I saw these on Amazon for a lower price and decided to give them a shot. MISTAKE. Two of the three bags have torn at the bottom, making flex tape repairs impossible; this happened after only two months of use! My pecan trees are protected by a 3 foot diameter chicken wire/field fence that is 4 feet tall, so no animal could have caused this. Unfortunately, I'll have to replace these bags because my trees still require a season of consistent watering before they can be considered self-sufficient. it is sufficient Despite the higher cost, I will replace with the originals again. Make sure you don't make the same blunder that I did.

It's hot here, very hot, so I bought these to help me water some fruit trees more easily. However, these items did not drain as quickly as they were supposed to. The drain holes become obstructed when they are fully filled and sag a little. Rather than draining the water over an eight-hour period, I saw almost no drain in 12 hours, and almost none in 24 hours; perhaps if you had a setup that could hold the bag upright throughout, they'd drain more effectively, but I don't. br>br>The idea behind tree bags is sound, but I can't have super hot water hanging around the base of my trees for a week just to drop 20 gallons.

I bought two of these bags for my two small trees in the backyard, which I planted after our house was built and don't have a soaker hose from our sprinkler system. This is a simple but effective concept. It's simple to use and great for adding extra tree vitamins to your water. The only drawback is that due to the bag's shifting weight as it empties, the water doesn't always drip as well as it should. All you have to do is reposition it slightly to shift the weight away from the drip holes, which is simple for me but may be difficult for those who are older if the bag is even half full. As a result, I've given it four out of five stars.

I fill them up once a week, and half of them drain properly, while the other half remain completely full. I'll have to go outside and move them around a little in the hopes of getting them to drain properly. They drain sometimes, and sometimes I have to go out and shift them around again in the hopes that they will drain. I'm about to poke my own holes in them so they always drain on the first try, but they were simple to put together. They were simply wrapped and zipped around the tree. However, I would prefer that they were wider rather than taller. In the summer, some of my smaller trees require water, but they are unable to do so because their lower branches remain.

It was a huge help to have these. They kept our trees well-watered and were simple to install and refill around the trees. The only regret we have is that we did not purchase them sooner. I would recommend these to anyone looking for this type of product because they are of good quality.

Four of these bags aren't draining, and I'm having trouble with them. I'm not sure how to get in touch with the seller. Later Edit: br>br> When I contacted Amazon's customer service department, I was told that the product would be returned as soon as possible. However, I'd like to contact the manufacturer to learn why four of the 45 bags did not drain.
