Contest! Vital liquid for plants and its benefits!
Assalam o alaikum.
Hello my steemit friends I hope you all are doing well and enjoying your day. I am very happy to participate in this interesting contest. Nature is full of beauty and plants are one of the most beautiful gifts of nature. Plants give us fresh air shade fruits vegetables and flowers. But just like humans and animals plants also need something to live and that is water. In this post i will share my thoughts on how water is important for plants and answer all the questions given in the contest. I hope you enjoy reading!
Do you have plantings or ornamental plants? How do you water them?
Yes i have both plantings and ornamental plants at my home. I love plants and enjoy spending time with them. I have fruit plants like guava lemon and grapevine. I also have some flowering and decorative plants like rose jasmine and aloe vera. These plants makes my home look fresh and green i water my plants early in the morning or in the evening. I used a watering can or sometimes a pipe with small holes so the water spreads gently. I nevered water my plants during hot afternoons because too much sun and water together can damage the roots. I also checked the soil before watering. If the soil is still wet i wait for a day. This helps to save water and keep the plants healthy. Overwatering can also harms the plant so i try to give only the amount they need.
Which do you think is better: rainwater household water or should you buy it? Give reasons for your answer.
In my opinion rainwater is the best for plants. It is natural pure and free from chemicals. Rainwater comes from the sky and is very light and soft. It helps plants grow faster and keeps them fresh. I have seen my plants look more beautiful after a rain. Rainwater also has nitrogen from the air which is good for leaves and growth. Household water is okay too but sometimes it has chlorine and other chemicals which may not be good for plants if used for a long time. So it is better to keep household water in a bucket for some hours before using it on plants. This will help the chemicals to settle down. I don’t think buying water for plants is a good ideas unless there is a big water shortage water is a precious resources and should not be wasted. We can collects rainwater in buckets or drums during the rainy seasons and used it laters for our plants this is a smart and eco-friendly way to save water.
What do you think is the function of water in the earth for plants?
Water plays many important roles in a plant’s life. First water helps in photosynthesis the process where plants make their own food using sunlight. Without water this process cannot happen. Water also carries nutrients from the soil to differents parts of the plant likes roots stem and leaves this helps the plants grow strong and healthy. Water also keeps the plant cool. On hot days water in the leaves turns into vapor and goes into the air. This is called transportations and it helps plants to stay fresh water also makes the soil soft so that roots can spreading easily. Seeds need water to start growing into plants. Without water they will remain dry and dead. So water is likes life for plants it supports growth health and food-making.
Do you think rainwater is essential for plants? Explain your answers.
Yes i truly believe that rainwater is essential for plants. It is the best kind of water they can get. When it rains not only do the roots get water but the leaves are also washed and cleaned. This helps the plant to breathe better. Rainwater also reaches deep into the soil and fills underground water levels which are used by trees and big plants through their deep roots. In farming areas farmers wait for rain so that their crops can grow. Rainwater is soft cool and refreshing. It does not have any soap oil or salt like some household water. In cities when it rains the parks and gardens become greener. It brings new life to dry and tired plants. So yes rainwater is not only important it is a gift of nature for plants and for all of us.
I wants to say that water is truly a vitals liquid for plants. Just like humans need water to stay alive plants also needs water to grow stayed green and make food. Whether its a small flower pot or a big trees every plant depends on water. We must save water use it wisely and never waste it. Let us also collect rainwater and take care of our plants with love and care. Thank you so much for reading my post. Stay green stay happy🌱💧🌼.
