DIY Tree Gator Water Bag

Step 3Feed the Gator...

7. Fill the DIY TreeGator Water Bag.

8. It's your choice on how far you want to fill the bag. At some point it will fill to capacity and possibly rupture. When it's full prick the surface of the lower edges with a pushpin or needle. We put in about five holes on each side on the lower bottom. More holes and/or larger holes will vary your water flow out of the bag... trial and error works best here depending on size, amount of water used and amount you want released over time...

9. Cover bag with mulch.

When it's empty, just reconnect your hose from the house to the bag using the quick connect/disconnects, turn the valve to open the connector and refill... be sure to close the valve before disconnecting from the primary hose.
