Right time to water the plantImage Credit source: Getty Images
Summer brings big challenges not only for humans but also for plants. In this season, strong sunlight, rising temperature and dry winds destroy the moisture of the plants. Due to which the plants start withering and the soil starts drying up. For this reason people start giving more water in summer. But this habit is also wrong. Excessive watering can cause the roots of the plant to rot. If you want to avoid plants drying up in summer, it is important not to water them too much but to water them at the right time. Most of the people are confused about what time to water in summer whether in the morning or evening.
Some people feel that it is right to give water in the morning. So some people believe that evening time is better for watering. But actually there is a scientific reason hidden behind it, which very few people know. Watering at the right time not only saves water, but also improves the health of the plants and there is a visible difference in their growth. Let us know in this article what is the right time to water plants?
What happens if you water in the morning?
Watering plants in the morning is considered most beneficial. At this time the temperature is low, due to which water slowly gets absorbed into the soil and reaches the roots well. Plants get hydrated before the whole day's sunlight, due to which they are able to withstand the heat better. Also, the water given in the morning dries quickly, which reduces the risk of fungal infection or rot.
What happens if you water in the evening?
Watering the plants in the evening also provides relief, especially when there has been strong sunlight throughout the day. But one disadvantage of watering at this time is that moisture persists for a long time at night, which can increase the risk of fungus or pests growing. If you have to water in the evening, then keep in mind that do not water too late at night and that too much water does not remain on the leaves of the plants.
Which time is right?
If we talk about the right time, then in summer morning is considered the best time for watering the plants. With this, the plants get enough moisture for the whole day and they remain healthy. However, in case of extreme heat or dry soil, light watering can be given in the evening also, but priority should always be given in the morning.
