Irrigation while on vacation

suma321
8 years ago

Hi friends,

Fist of all I want to thank you all for giving me advice on other things I posted. You guys have been great help.

I am planning to plant rose bushes, one apple tree, and one lemon tree. Mostly dwarf or semi dwarf. May be Meyer lemon tree and golden delicious apple. 3.25 gallon that we get in OSH.

Then going on vacation for one month by leaving my irrigation timer on.

Is it advisable to plant now? Or should I plant them after I come back from vacation, which is from July 15th-Aug 15th.

I live in San Ramon. So it's going to be very hot.

We just did our backyard, and I am very excited to plant now.

What is your advice?

Thanks
