Many summer residents and gardeners are sure that there is no need to water the garden after rain.
However, in reality things are different, and plants still need additional liquid.
Let's figure out why watering is necessary even after rain that lasts all day.
Why you need to water your garden after it rains
After it rains, the soil becomes softer and therefore absorbs liquid better.
Therefore, if you water the beds after the rains have passed, this will create an additional supply of moisture deep in the soil. And this, in turn, is a great help for those summer residents who can only come to the site on weekends.
However, it is important to take into account the nature of the precipitation. If the rains were prolonged and lasted for several days, then there is a risk of flooding the beds.
Such measures are no less harmful than a lack of water, and as a result, they can result in a complete loss of your crop.
Earlier we wrote about how you should never water plants in hot weather.
