Proper watering
What you need to remember that watering is brought plants only benefit?
The first rule of irrigation is that water should not very often, but abundantly.
The watering time. Of course, the ideal time for irrigation - windless late in the evening, when the heat was sleeping in front of a cool night, and evaporation is minimal. You can water the plants and in the early morning, before the heat. However, if the plant looks dehydrated on a hot day, don't wait for the onset of the evening coolness, and pour it immediately, avoiding getting water on the leaves and cause burns.
Watering the garden in the evening, try to loosen the soil in the morning, because loosening not only enriches the soil with oxygen, making it easier to access, but also helps to maintain a fairly stable soil moisture. Better yet, cover the ground with mulch to prevent evaporation of moisture and will give the access of oxygen to the roots. As mulch you can use peat moss, grass clippings, sawdust of deciduous trees. From irrigation will be more confusing if you are using for this purpose settled in the vessel and heated in the sun the water.
The amount of water. To water the plants every day little by little makes no sense. Water remains in the surface layer of the soil, and the roots are unable to use it. In addition, the water evaporates quickly from the surface. By watering the soil to soak up the moisture 20-25 cm deep to the water saturation has occurred at the level of deep root layers. In this case, the roots of the plants will be in a moist soil environment and does not suffer from a temporary lack of moisture.
The frequency of irrigation
depends on the structure of soil and its ability to retain moisture, weather conditions, and requirements of specific crops to the amount of moisture, which can vary greatly. To water the plants need gradually, in several stages, and again returning to the already watered place. As a result of this irrigation, the moisture is completely absorbed in the ground will soften it and make it susceptible to receiving a new portion of water. In the process of gradual watering the earth acquires the structure of a sponge, no water rolls off the surface and does not spread to the sides, and seeps deep, saturating the lower layers.
It is important not to miss the moment when to irrigate. It is not always dry soil surface signals the need for irrigation. At the depth of the roots of the earth may be crude, and provides extra moisture to the plants is not required.
But a number of flower and ornamental plants root system is small in the upper soil layer. For such plants is very dangerous surface drying, as they are not able to use the moisture from the deeper layers. Therefore, the rate and frequency of irrigation also depends on the crop type and the depth location of the root system of the plant.
Irrigation method.
Water the plants under root, so that the water fed directly to the root area of the plant was not damaged his leafy part, because many plants are extremely sensitive to moisture, provoking the emergence and development of fungal diseases.
