Every gardener knows that plants need to be watered, but how often and what needs to be taken into account for their growth.
What season is it now?
Plants require less water in cool and rainy weather. In the hot season, especially drought, the frequency of irrigation increases.
Despite the weather, check the soil yourself.
You can use containers and irrigation hoses in large areas.
Use water wisely
Use traditional methods of watering plants. If you do not have a valve in your arsenal to close the water in the system, it is better to purchase it.
A hose with such a closure will reduce your time for watering plants.
Of course, it is better to water the plants in the morning, since evaporation increases in the afternoon.
With an automatic irrigation system, pay attention that it is better not to use it in windy conditions.
Use fertilizer and crystals
You can use it at a depth of 3 about 4 inches. The water will evaporate in a reduced amount.
The soil will become more fertile for sowing. Another way to water is the use of special crystals.
If you have pots of flowers, you can add them there. Mix them with the soil and the water will be absorbed faster.
In case of heavy rains, make sure that there are drainpipes in the house.
