Here is my first followup to Watering a tree. Since posting I have been pouring just under 4 gallons a day through the hole in the flowerpot, and watching it drain into the ground.
On weekdays I usually do this at lunchtime. (Right now I'm working from home.) On weekends the time varies; dawn and dusk are both good times. I sit in a chair near the tree, and while the water is draining I look up and around. I rarely take time to do that, so that's another thing to thank the tree for.
I missed one day, and yesterday there was actual rain. Today I'll likely water the tree again.
