Drought and excessive heat are becoming a major problem for allotments and gardens<\/strong> due to reduced irrigation. Here are useful tips to solve this problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Drought is<\/strong> a huge inconvenience that is affecting all sectors, in particular the irrigation of allotments and gardens. Local administrations are banning irrigation given the worrying situation caused by high temperatures and lack of rain. Plants, flowers and fruit trees are therefore in danger.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Water scarcity requires everyone to dose it adequately for essential activities. One of the operations consists in reducing the irrigation of allotments and gardens. The situation appears dramatic and without solutions. What can we do then?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Drought and heat wave have devastating effects on all types of crops<\/strong> . For those who dedicate their time to taking care of plants, flowers and vegetables, it is really difficult to get ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Water scarcity forces us to concentrate water resources on human and agricultural uses. To cope with the restriction measures imposed by municipalities to save drinking water, it is possible to implement alternative ideas<\/strong> capable of saving until the rain arrives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Rainwater harvesting is the first thing to think about. Taking advantage of the gutters and canopies, place buckets and basins under them. Bins are also useful, as are tanks for large quantities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But if it doesn’t rain, what can you do? it is the only possible solution. The water you use to cook pasta, rice or vegetables may be enough for you once it cools. It is not necessary to salt it and it will also be excellent for watering plants and fertilizing the soil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Watering schedules are equally important. Never water your gardens, flowers and plants during the hottest hours<\/strong> . The water evaporates too quickly without providing moisture to the vegetation. It is advisable to water in the evening,<\/strong> always aiming the jet directly at the ground and not at the leaves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Creating shade for plants helps limit damage caused by excessive heat<\/strong> . It is also useful to place straw, hay, grass or special leaves on the soil of your crops. The mulching system is also perfect for reducing water consumption.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Drought and excessive heat are becoming a major problem for allotments and gardens due to reduced irrigation.
