Water your plants thoroughly in the cool of the day

save water

Instead of giving your plants a light sprinkling everyday, it is far more effective to give them a good soaking less often. This will encourage the roots to penetrate deeper into the soil, accessing the moisture in the ground and enabling them to survive between watering and in times of drought. Remember to water in cool, still conditions as most water will evaporate in the heat of the day or when it is very windy.
