Irrigation of the garden by rain method

Irrigation by rain method is another method of irrigation of the garden. In this method, PVC plastic pipes are buried in the soil, sprinklers are connected to these pipes, these sprinklers spread water in the air and irrigate plants like rain. In the rain irrigation method, a lot of water evaporates, and because the entire garden is irrigated, more weeds will grow in the garden.

Garden irrigation by drip method

The best methods of watering the garden are drip irrigation. Drip irrigation not only saves water, but also saves time, energy and money. Soil erosion and weed growth is much less in this method. With the drip irrigation system, you only make the settings and you don’t have to spend a long time watering your garden with a hose or sprinkler.

Drip irrigation is a network of water pipes that is distributed throughout the garden. In this network, at the foot of each plant or tree, a dripper is installed to deliver water drop by drop and with low pressure to the plant. The water distribution in this method is uniform, although the amount of water distribution can be changed by adjusting the droppers. In this method, an irrigation timer can be used at the beginning of the pipe route so that irrigation can be done with more management and planning.

It is better to know that chemical irrigation is possible with drip irrigation. Chemical fertilizers are injected and dissolved in the main water transfer pipe, the fertilizer falls on the feet of each plant, this method of fertilization is called chemical irrigation.

Time to water the garden

It doesn’t matter which of the garden watering methods you choose, in spring and summer, you should water the plant one to three times a week, as the heat increases and the rate of evaporation increases, the number of watering times increases, but the best time for Irrigation of the garden is early in the morning and in the evening, during these hours the evaporation of water by the sun is very low, so less water is wasted during these hours.

Tips on garden irrigation

Now that you are familiar with garden irrigation methods, learn some tips about watering plants:

It is better to plant native plants in your garden. Native plants are adapted to the climatic conditions of their region.
It is good to know that plants with thin leaves need more water than plants with fleshy leaves.

Garden irrigation methods
If you want to keep the soil moist, cover the soil surface with mulch. Mulch keeps the air in and protects the moisture of the soil from evaporation, so sprinkling mulch on the soil will reduce the frequency of watering, and with this, weeds will not have a chance to grow.
Do not use plastic mulches, natural mulches such as sawdust, hazelnut shells, walnut shells, grass clippings and leaves work much better.
Air pollution may coat leaves and plants with a layer of soot. In this situation, they wash the leaves to prevent the openings from being blocked. Make sure that the water pressure is not too high, so as not to break the branches, stems and damage the leaves and petals.
Plants such as moss and algae move the water inside their tissues outside when they are dry, so the neighborhood of garden plants with moss and algae when the plants are thirsty will be useful and efficient.

The amount of fertilizer that you use in your garden should be the right amount. A lot of fertilizer makes the plants feel more thirsty in the summer.
