Planting Hole Sizes, Amendments, Stake Kits and Needed Access for Planting

Here is a chart of hole sizes in relation to the pot size or tree trunk's diameter on any Job's document (Quote, Order, or Invoice).  Job's uses the industry standard way of pot size reference. For example a 6 inch pot is a #1 pot (pronounced as a number 1 pot) which is also the same as the old term 1 gallon, though it never is able to hold a gallon of water. The correct amount of soil amendment, staking materials, and when the tree is heavy enough to need equipment.
