Watering cans differ mainly in size and tip. Some have a strainer in this place, others just have an ordinary hole through which a stream of water comes out. Unfortunately, the last solution may cause some problems, especially if we are dealing with small or very delicate plants. The stream of water is simply too large and too strong and can only reach one place.
Fortunately, this can be easily remedied and there is no need to replace the watering can or purchase an additional tip. All you need is a regular spoon or teaspoon and a rubber band or tie. String will also work, but it will take a little longer to use.
The trick is to place the spoon in the watering can so that the widest part of it sticks out above the pot. In this way we change the path of the water and disperse it. Thanks to this, we can easily irrigate a larger area evenly without worrying about flooding or damaging the plants with too strong a stream.
Just look how simple and effective it is.
Putting a spoon in a watering can may seem strange and irrational until you learn about the effects. Such watering is pure pleasure and saves time. It goes much faster.
You can use this trick on your plot, in your garden, or even at home if you have plants in very large pots.
Remember, it is best to water your plants with room temperature water. It's a myth that it has to be cold. This directly harms the flowers and negatively affects the soil. Too low a temperature can cause heat shock and even kill even the most sensitive plants. In addition, cold water inhibits the action of beneficial microorganisms in the soil.
Rainwater is the best water for irrigation, but if you don't have that option, boiled, stagnant tap water will also work.
