I'm looking at a tree watering bag that releases 20 gallons in 6-8 hours. Since it is a slow release do i not have to worry about drowning the tree? My trees are newly planted.

Thanks for the replies everyone- I'm sure you Can understand why i wouldn't want lead stuck on my fruit trees.

The reason i ask is because i bought a paint that has lead in it and I'm not sure if that's a hazard to my trees/self.

What is the best brand of latex paint to use on fruit trees?

I plan to use this latex paint on my new fruit trees(apple, pear, apricot, plums, mulberry). Does anyone have experience with this specific product? Is there anything i need to watch out for? Any better products?

Any tips for growing blueberries in SE Iowa?

Thanks everyone for the responses. I'll see what i can do.

Miles, I'll have to try that with the apples that don't have any marks on them. Thanks for the ideas.

How can i prevent bugs from chewing holes in my young apples? I have an all seasons oil spray but i don't know when to apply it.

Thanks Wayne, I was planning on doing something like that but i didn't have a good idea on what materials to use. Cows won't be a problem for me, only rabbits and deer. If you don't mind me asking about how much did it cost to fence all your trees?
