I almost suggested he patent his method but I thought that might be a bit
unkind!

I'd give each one at least a bucket full of water, if not 2 then a
bucket full a week through the next few months if it doesnt rain
heavily.
Pour it slowly so it has time to soak in, you want it to go down at
least a foot. hence the 2 to start with.
If your ground is as stony as you say the chances are that the
drainage is good so the soil will be dry.
