- If planted from the first of April to the
first of May water once a day for the first 30 days.

twice a day for 30 days, then once a day for 2 weeks, then once every 3
days for 2 weeks, then once a week.
- If planted when dormant, water once a week
for several weeks and then stop until spring.
- Because container trees normally grow fast
the first couple of years, the trees should be staked.
- From bud break on, spray leaves until wet
with zinc sulfate at 1-tablespoon per 3 gallons of water (or 1 lb per 50
gallons of water) every 2 weeks until mid or late summer or whenever
tree stops growing.
9. If planted during dormant
season the trees may be fertilized with a balanced fertilizer at a rate of a
¼ lb. Fertilize again in May with a ¼ lb. fertilizer. If planting after trees are leafed out
there is no need to fertilize because the trees have already been fertilized
before leaving the nursery.

Pecan Tree Information
- Pecan trees are considered mature between
7-10 years
- Tree grows first crop of pecan between 4-6
years
- To test soil suitability, dig a hole the
size of the pecan tree container and fill the hole with water. If the
water drains within 24-48 hours, the soil is optimal. If the water
drains in 48-72, soil is suitable. More than 72 hours, soil is less
desirable and you will have slow growth.
- Success of the tree depends on variety,
weather conditions, amount of water, sunlight, soil, pesticides, etc.
