Identify The Signs of Overwatering
Look for symptoms of overwatering. This can include a loss of vigor, yellow leaves, leaf scorch, and water-soaked blisters on the stems and leaves. Dig down a few inches into the tree’s root zone. Very moist soil at that depth suggests too much water. A sour smell indicates that the soil is oxygen-deprived.
Stop Watering
Stop watering the tree until you determine the cause or causes of the overwatering problem. Generally, overwatering injury is caused by a combination of factors, including heavy soil, poor tree placement and inappropriate watering methods.
Stop Fertilizing
Stop all fertilizing. Don’t start until the tree recovers. Too much fertilizer burns the tree roots, making them unable to absorb the moisture in the soil.
Move the Tree
Move the tree to a better site if the cause of the overwatering cannot be fixewd. Although transplanting stresses a tree, it may be the only solution if the tree is planted in a low spot that regularly accumulates moisture, or if the soil is heavy clay or very compacted.
