How much water does a one year old pink lady apple tree need each day?
Frequent, shallow watering keeps roots near the surface and allows the water to evaporate. I would encourage you to do a deep watering a couple of times a week rather then a little water every day. Turn the hose on about 1/4 volume and leave it at the base of the tree for an hour or two. Sandy soil will absorb the water faster then clay soils and thus can take a higher volume of water in a shorter time. Your soil type, size of the tree, and recent rain fall will all alter the amount of water you apply.
