How to Water
By: Nancy Maltais
The most difficult job I have is to get someone to water correctly. Applicants come and tell me they have no experience but of course they could water. Sounds likely but not if you know much about plants. Watering is not just dragging a hose around and watering things that look dry. In fact, a plant's soil may look dry and it has plenty of water. The watering person must know the most about plants, what they need for fertilizer, what they need for moisture, what diseases look like, how to recognize pests and how they should look at every growing stage.
Watering in or out of a greenhouse should be done so that the water runs through the container and pulls in air. This also leaves the nutrients in the water at the root level. No plant should get water or nutrients from the top of the soil. Those roots should go down to the bottom and not have to redirect themselves upwards to survive. I am always saying," if it really needs water, water it thoroughly and then let it dry out". Salvia Strata Watering should be done in the morning before 9 a.m. The plant then has enough water to use when the sun is high and temperatures climb. . Don't water between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. Any droplets left on the leaves will turn into magnifiers and burn your leaves. This rule applies to inside a greenhouse and outdoors. If a plant will die because it has totally fainted(wilted) during this time, place your watering tool onto the soil keeping the leaves dry. I do a recheck of all the houses at 2 p.m. The only plants to get a second drink are those that have started to faint. Plants are healthiest when their soil top is dry, and not continuously wet. I want my plants to go to bed for the night dry. Another way to see if a plant has plenty of water is to pick up the pot. The soil line may be dry but if the pot is heavy, it has plenty of water. For efficiency and health, keep those plants getting their drink in the morning,or you will be hopscotching around morning and afternoon. It is so much easier if all of them want water at a certain time When we get a very hot spell, sure you are going to water twice a day. There is always some well meaning soul coming to tell me that the dirt is dry on top of one of my plants. They are so surprised when I ask if the plant is fainting or does the pot feel heavy. After 3 p.m. nothing should be watered, even if the pot does not feel heavy. Why? Because plants do not drink and eat in the evening. Remember this principle on cloudy or rainy days.
