The Do's and Don'ts of Watering

Objectives Recall three major functions of water in plant growth. Explain two effects of over and under watering your plants. Be able to determine when plants should be watered. Discuss the time and frequency of watering. Compile a complete list of watering requirements for your neighbor. (activity) Research the issues of water conservation and local water ordinances in our area.

Functions of Water Provides two essential nutrients to plants. Keeps plants turgid or inflated. Medium for transporting nutrients and food throughout the plant. Necessary for photosynthesis. Maintains stable temperature in the plant.

Effects of Watering Plants Over Watering Shallow root systems Root rot Wilting Nutrient deficiencies Stunted growth Under Watering Decreased Growth Decreased rate of photosynthesis Smaller leaves Shorter internodes Stunted, hardened appearance

How to Determine When Plants Need Watered Learn plant signal. Watch for drought stress. Discoloration of the plant. Lack of turgidity in the plant or turf. Plastic stick method. Wetness of the soil.

Time and Frequency of Watering Early morning hours Not afternoon Not late afternoon or early evening Frequency When needed Determining factors include: Need Soil Characteristics Environmental conditions
