Many garden crops require so-called deep watering.
This is the name of the procedure that ensures the flow of moisture into the soil to a significant depth.
This phenomenon has a positive effect on plants whose roots go very deep.
But how can we ensure that not only the top layer of soil is saturated with water?
Standard watering with a hose or watering can is unlikely to be effective. And increasing the frequency of the procedure is unlikely to give any positive effect.
We'll have to use an additional device. But which one?
What to install in the garden bed
A bucket or flower pot should be placed next to a crop with a deep root system.
A hole must be dug specifically for the container.
The container used should have numerous holes at the bottom.
There is no need to fill the bucket placed in the hole with soil. The container should remain empty.
But it is necessary to carry out watering through the device. Due to the absence of the upper soil layer, the moisture will reach a considerable depth and will be able to reach the roots of the garden crop.
