How To Water The Community Garden in Summer

1. Watering should focus on the flowers and not wait until the leaves have wilted before watering. For example, in the summer of Melbourne, the sun is scorching, so watering every day during the summer is an essential lesson. In order to prevent the water from seeping into the ground at once, you can use discarded mineral water bottles (cut off the bottom) and slightly open the lid (drip water as much as possible), with the main purpose of allowing water to slowly seep into the roots of the plant (allowing the plant to absorb as much water as possible instead of losing it too quickly).
2. When watering, you need to look at the soil. The soil is dry within 2 to 3 centimeters and does not need to be watered (this can exercise the habit of plant roots rolling downwards). The roots of plants are the main organs for absorbing water, and even the leaves can absorb a small amount of water, but it is not significant for plants.
3. Watering depends on the weather. Watering in the morning is gold, watering at night is silver, and watering flowers at noon is deadly! Watering plants is like a silent state of moistening, which is the best. Gentle watering can gradually moisturize the roots of plants. Slow irrigation with large amounts of water can easily cause soil erosion. In areas with scorching sunlight, plants can be watered more, such as hanging baskets, which are susceptible to scorching heat waves in the air.
