In the last week of June, the UK is experiencing an unprecedented heatwave. It's a good opportunity to remind ourselves of the right things to do in the garden, and above all the mistakes to avoid, which can encourage disease.🌱 Watering your plants in a certain way during a heatwave is a common mistake that can lead to numerous problems.
And don't decide, like many other budding gardeners, to water your plants in the middle of the day. That would be counterproductive and a real waste of water. This will be more effective, as the water will go straight to the roots and your plants will be safe. And if, because of the gloomy weather over the last few months, you've only recently planted seedlings, opt for evening watering instead.
