The main mistake in watering that causes drought in the garden and greenhouse

Incorrect watering can cause a reduction in yield and even the death of some plants.

It is convenient to water the beds from a well, but cold water is not the best solution for plants.

An experienced gardener knows that cold water is stressful for greens. Not all crops are able to absorb it.

Cold water dissolves essential substances slowly, which leads to a lack of nutrition for seedlings. As a result, leaves and buds may begin to fall off.

Even if you are just watering indoor flowers, you need to prepare water at least at room temperature.

Of course, there are cold-resistant crops that can tolerate watering with cold water, but not all plants have such properties.

A good solution may be to install drip irrigation, but not everyone can afford to use this technology.

Therefore, it is easier to take the path of least resistance and take water from a barrel that has stood in the sun for a while.
