When watering a garden, summer residents need to remember that any action can be both useful and harmful.
Therefore, it is important to know and remember the rules of watering before picking up a watering can.
Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", an agronomist and landscape designer, reminded us what mistakes can be made when watering a vegetable garden.
Watering errors
1. Water should be poured onto the soil so that it does not fall on the leaves. Because of this, the leaves will droop and the roots will get less water.
2. In hot weather, you should forget about watering at all. It is better to do this in the morning cool or after sunset.
3. It is important to remember that moisture evaporates at different rates from flowerpots, raised beds and regular beds. Therefore, plants need different amounts of water.
4. Strong pressure can harm plants. Water should not destroy the soil layer or damage leaves.
5. The watering schedule can be followed only when caring for seedlings. In the garden, you need to take into account the amount of precipitation, weather conditions, the condition of the plants and other factors.
