What works for me: (Also in California)

I stop watering until the plant shows stress (slight wilting). Then I
increase water incrementally until the plant prospers. I use many drip
circuits.

I live in Fairfield, California, Western Garden Zone 14. I am having
a hard time figuring how much I should water my plants. My drip system
is fairly accurate; so if I know the number of gallons per week (during
peak watering time) for my plants, I should be able to get it right.

I have been told that a "small shrub" should get about 10 gallons per
week, but I don't know whether that applies here or not. Is there any
place that I can get better information?

I would like this information for specific plants as well, if
possible. Some of the plants I have a Hydrangeas, Persimmon tree,
Crape Myrtle trees, Lemon tree, Jade plants, Cymbidiums, Roses.
