Planting trees before heavy rain

General Fruit Growing

I am getting my Cummins order today. Today the weather is fine, tomorrow heavy rain is expected. After that it will be a week or two long dry period. Should I plant my trees today, or keep them until Saturday, as on Friday it will be too wet to dig?

I would definitely plant them before the rain, they will be hydrated and happy.

Thanks! I need to go check the soil, we had heavy rain yesterday too :slight_smile:. It looks drained outside, but need to check with my shovel!

Trees are planted. And we expect 1’’ of rain during 5 hours interval today. I guess it would be a good test for my planting sites - not to late to dig up the trees and correct the issues if any.
