Garden potted plants need water. When summer arrives and the rains end, we must never forget it, otherwise they will die. If you’re growing vegetables, water is really important for growing the plant, but also for having tasty fruit. Precisely for this reason, we want to show you the farmer’s method of watering the horticultural plants in your garden effortlessly and free of charge for about a month. You don’t have to water them every day, just check from time to time that everything is working properly.
Next, in the next paragraph, we will show you everything in detail about how to perform this method. You don’t need to buy absolutely anything, since we are going to use a very common item at home. Here are all the details you need to know.
How to Water Plants for a Month
As we said, this method can be useful if you are away from home for a few days. You need a large plastic bottle. The bigger the bottle, the more days you won’t water your plants. Now use a marker to make a mark about 15 centimeters off the ground and 10 centimeters from your neck. Connect it and it will be an internal line that will serve as a guide to know the position in which to place the bottle on the plant. Just below the line, about 7 centimeters from the bottom, make a spot that you need to pierce. You can do this with a hot punch or spin plate.
The hole should be small and not too big. Fill the bottle with water at this point. Not all the way, but all the way to the beginning of the line drawn above. Now close the bottle with a tight-fitting lid. It’s time to place the bottle near the plant.
Insert the bottle into the bottom
You can use this method in the garden and you’ll need to get close to the plant and lightly dig up some soil so you can assemble the bottle. The bottle must be buried up to the starting point of the previously made line. Remember to face the plant with the side of the bottle with the hole.
Now cover with soil again. Then open the cap and fill the bottle completely. Now close it again with the lid. Once the bottle is closed, the water level will no longer drop and will only come out at the request of the plant or if the soil is dry. It will fall in a drop. This way, you can be sure that your plants will always be watered and you won’t have to remember to water the plants every day. This method is especially for vegetables planted in the garden. But there are also other methods for potted plants, such as bottle and twine.
