Summer care

How to maintain plants in summers

1. Water plants early in the morning to reduce evaporation and allow absorption.

2. Mulch around plants to retain soil moisture and regulate temperature.

3. Use shade cloths or provide partial shade for sensitive plants.

4. Check soil moisture regularly and water deeply rather than frequently.

5. Prune dead or damaged leaves to reduce stress on the plant.

6. Fertilize lightly, avoiding heavy feeding which can stress plants in heat.

7. Group potted plants together to create a humid micro climate.

8. Watch for pests and diseases, which can be more prevalent in warm weather.

9. Use drip irrigation systems for efficient watering.

Adjust lawn mowing height to reduce stress on grass.
