Thank you Bucheron,
I know that 5L / foot is not much, it would rather 20 Liters ... but good lack of better. The feet will be between 30 and 40 cm.
I plan to water at night to minimize evaporation or better when planting I will place a buried pipe to water in the ground (I don't have thousands of feet to do).
Otherwise gréoux is between 500 and 600 ml / year

The problem with drip irrigation is that the water does not go down into the earth. It is better to put a "big" amount at once so that the water goes down deeper and the roots follow.renaud67 wrote:[...] I plan the watering at night to minimize evaporation or better during planting I will place a buried pipe to water in the ground (I don't have thousands of feet to do).

I was probably not clear enough, I do not want to drip:
dots '.' below it is for the layout: I got chi ... otherwise I will make an image if it is still not clear. The bold pipe below

The pipe goes to the bottom of the hole made during transplantation: we place a funnel on the end of the pipe in the air and the water goes directly to the bottom of the hole

Hello
your system is good but you will be pissed off because the water will not go down to the bottom of the hole.
Rather put bottles buried with their asses cut, like that floats all night to go down, and put on a grid otherwise the Parisian ecologists will accuse you of killing the field mice.

Indeed your process is not bad (even if the water has very little chance of finding the bottom of the dug hole, even if it is not very porfond) and the proposal for zac is appropriate.
As for the grid to save the mice ... what foresight, I would have frankly not thought about it but my advice is the same as his for the bottles!

OK I understand !
You will see on the image a corrugated pipe put in place around the root ball of the planted tree: it is an agricultural drain. This is what we do in my box and it works very well for watering trees.
Not bad the system. I can tell you something more efficient still: http://bucheronh.free.fr/Econologie/Arrosage.docrenaud67 wrote:[...]

Once again thank you lumberjack,
is the corrugated pipe perforated with micro holes, or is it open at the ends (if it's not a trade secret ). for easier flow I think it's open at the ends ...
You sell to the individual, How much does it cost -> can be answered by PM, although that could interest other person.
If it interests people, I harvested on the canvas some tips to make the theft of freshly planted feet more annoying (as a reminder of my nightmare 80 2 year old olive trees planted there are 4 left).
