Next time your at Bunnings pick up a moisture meter probe from the garden section, around $12. Poke it into the soil and instantly the gauge will tell you the whether the soil is wet, moist or dry. It takes the guesswork out of watering.

The rule is to water only when it's needed, most trees in a constantly wet soil will not thrive.
