Maximize Your Plant Watering

There are a lot of tips out there about the right time of day to water to prevent evaporation, plus not getting water on plant leaves or they’ll attract fungus and mold.  Water at any time and avoid leaves while recycling plastic bottles. Take a regular plastic bottle and poke tiny holes throughout the bottom and the lower half of the bottle. “Plant” the bottle deep enough that only the top opening is visible above the soil. You can fill the bottle at any time of day and the water will seep out into the soil at a depth that will encourage deeper root systems and healthier plants.
