Run the weekly deep-watering round for Ukiah's young trees through the hot months.

A tree planted in Ukiah faces five rainless months of 100°F heat in its first summers, and unwatered young trees on the hot blocks die faster than programs can replant them. The weekly deep-watering round through the dry season is what turns plantings into canopy.

This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash — recorded, and readable any time at vealth.net/labor/credit/(your wallet). You see which before you claim, never after.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.

Steps

1. Take the young-tree list for the assigned blocks and photograph any stressed trees.
2. Deep-water each tree 10-15 gallons slowly at the basin from carried water or host spigots.
3. Refresh basins and mulch rings where flattened or thin.
4. Flag dead or damaged trees for the replant list.
5. Photograph the round and log trees watered with date.

What counts as done

• Photos of watered trees with GPS and date
• Count and gallons per tree
• Flags noted for the replant list

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The standard this serves

Tree Planting and Establishment. Planting a tree properly is a codified craft, and the arborists' standards are blunt about why: most young trees that die were killed at planting, by a hole dug too deep, a root ball left bound, a first summer without water. Mastery looks like trees you planted years ago still standing, which is the only measure arborists accept. The craft lives in exactly the steps this packet asks for: the wide shallow hole, the freed roots, the mulch kept off the trunk, the watering that follows. Plant one tree correctly and you know something real.
