Perfect Timing for Watering in Hot Season

The timing of watering is the key to keeping plants healthy. During the hot season and the summer days, it's best practice to water your garden only in the morning and evening! Try watering when the temperature is cooler and let the plants have sufficient time to absorb the water, avoiding causing any harm to the fragile plants.

Choose the time periods that are suitable for both plants and yourself, make gardening easier and smarter.

Watering as the Plants Need

Always remember to water your plants according to their needs. We can categorize the plants into two types: surface-rooting and deeper-rooting. For example, surface-rooting plants like tomatoes, peppers, and cucumbers need more frequent watering as they lose water quickly. On the contrary, deeper-rooting vegetables such as carrots and potatoes, the soil will contain moisture much longer, and it requests less watering times.
