Seedling Tip: Proper Watering

When watering seedlings, it is important to provide them with consistent moisture. Water the seedlings thoroughly, but avoid overwatering as it can lead to root rot. To ensure proper watering, use a watering can or a spray bottle with a fine mist to avoid damaging delicate seedlings. Water the soil directly at the base of the seedlings, rather than spraying the foliage. This helps prevent disease and allows the roots to absorb water more efficiently. Remember to water in the morning or early afternoon to allow foliage to dry before nightfall, reducing the risk of fungal diseases.
