They were easy to setup and seem to make the young trees happier Was hoping they would hold water for longer but seem to be empty out in a day Seems the drain time to be normal based on research

I use these arounn newly planted apple trees. The trees are small and the summer heat in the Northeast have been brutal. I don't have to worry about watering the trees. I fill them once a week and don't have to worry they'll dry out. The functionality is great; it takes a while for the water to seep into the ground and the plastic zipper is easy to put on and take off.

I highly recommend you purchase one of these during the hot summer. We planted an Oak tree a bit far from our house and we fill the bag twice a week. The bag holds in the water and slowly feeds the tree.

These work well to keep new trees watered  in the heat of summer. Water leaks out over about an hour.  Seem to be strong enough.

I got these for two cherry trees we planted this spring. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to use them because my trees are much too small, and do not have enough trunk below the branches for these to fit.

Easy to use and definitely a plus while we're in a drought -- heavy duty vinyl, easy to fill. Definitely a good price for the product.

We planted three apple tree saplings last year that are growing nicely. Because our summers are becoming hotter and dryer, we water them constantly. When I saw this product, I figured it was the perfect solution, and to a certain extent it is with a fairly major caveat. The bags are rugged and hold up fine when full of water, which is fairly simple to add with a common garden hose. The issue is that they drain too quickly--they have not lasted a minimum of five hours, and definitely not nine hours. So I have to refill them more than I would like. Other than that they do cut down somewhat on the need for constant watering, but not as much as I'd like.

I should have known better, but I got these thinking they would be perfect for my brand new trees I brought home from the nursery to help keep happy... I have 2 trees that these bags kind of work for, but most of them are babies that are less than an inch in diameter and I don't think these would work very well for (maybe next year!) These are easy enough to fill with a garden hose, but it takes a few minutes to get done. They drain more quickly than the 9 hours, but they don't instantly empty and flood the area. These are tall enough that I haven't needed to put a protector on the bottom for protection from rabbits, so that's convenient. Still need my deer cages though, they aren't spooked by all of weird bags on the bottom...
