I'd suggest removing the maple trees lol.
I don't know if it has any value to you though.
I went straight ahead and put 3 gallons into maybe 15-20 gallon pots and it worked pretty well.
The big ones i have in ground in rootmakers are vigorous and healthy trees that are easy to keep alive like mango, sapodilla, jaboticaba, etc.
Not sure what you're trying to put in ground, but what brian suggested is a good recommendation. Especially if they are more sensitive, it's easier to control moisture. Be aware that you will have to water more often.
This can work well with trees that don't like wet feet.
That is how I am growing my rollinia.
Zip ties work well. I use 3-4 per pot.
Now if Mark in Texas could chime in too...
Jealous of his nice avocados.
Never got around to grwoing one.
One spot recently opened up in the greenhouse though so maybe I'll do a rootmaker avocado.
