Vegetable gardens seem to be seen in droves in summer when the days are longer. The weather is more beneficial if you grow together plants that we involve our daily diet, and many are looking for a new hobby. For those who rise on the trend every year, it seems to be an easy decision to simply do with plants what interests you most. However, there are many important garden tips and tricks for beginners who first take into account the longevity of your garden. Among them is to understand plant irrigation of crucial importance, and lunch is the worst time for water.
To understand why this is the least ideal time to extinguish your plants, Chowhound spoke to the organic farmer, the licensed landscape entrepreneur, landscape designer, project manager and co-founder of Farmscape, Lara Hermanson, which operates the Nordkalifornian branch of Farmscape. Hermanson literally throws some light on the endeavor: If you initially plan your irrigation plan, remember that “heat and direct evaporation and drainage of sun drives are so that less moisture reaches the roots.” Therefore, the irrigation afternoon reduces the ability of your plants to effectively absorb the urgently needed fluid intake.
Hermanson realizes that it is not that their plants suffer the health of their plants naturally, although it is categorically one of the least desirable times for water. “It is only wasteful” compared to other painting in which you can pour your plants. This time of day is less about the potential damage that can be inflicted to your plants (the scorching argument has been exposed) than sustainability, since it is associated with the efforts to maintain water maintenance.

When you get up every morning before work, you miss a great opportunity to take care of your garden: Lara Hermanson notes that “early morning is the best time for water – ideally shortly after dawn. Cooler air and floor mean less evaporation, so that water penetrates deeper into the root zone.” Hermanson continues and says that plants can be irrigated during the early hours of the morning “that they can handle heat and wind better”. But that's not always a possibility. Many are aware of how busy schedules can get when they try to plan in their vegetable garden.
Although we know that noon is not ideal, it doesn't necessarily harm your plants if necessary. If the time goes out and instead you have to prioritize your cup of coffee, tend to your vegetables at lunchtime. At the same time, it is not a suitable option at night if you live in a damp climate. In these environments, Hermanson says: “Leaves remain wet for hours overnight, which promotes mildew and lazy.”
In cases where you are unable to avoid the lunch waters, and moist climate zones distract you from the evening, Hermanson recommends that you go “low and slowly. Keep the water at the floor level with drops or a water rod at the base of the plants and divide the session into two shorter cycles.” These irrigation styles helps the plants to better absorb their urgently needed moisture without using the risk of drainage and excessive use of resources. For those who have no garden outdoors, you should avoid these frequent mistakes if you try to breed vegetables inside.
