I've got limited water and will be trucking extra water from a friend's place a few miles away. I'm trying to predict how much water each hole will absorb without becoming soggy yet enough water so it penetrates to the bottom. They are between 3 and 4' round and deep filled with a local "Mary Jane" mix of compost with lots of goodies plus some native soil. I'm thinking maybe 2x a week with 5 gallons each time. Or maybe once with 5 gals and the next time 10 gals spread over a week or so depending on the weather. I'm on the Coast of NCa so it rarely gets very hot. In the past I've grown in large grow bags so it was easy to tell. This year I'm in the ground so a new ball game.
Also going to use a mix of gray and fresh water.
