rational water use. Data
note: 20 m2 of land in orchard, spend watering 2 times a day, 140 liters of water per day.
If you turn on the tap water, try to use no more than 5 minutes, no more, if left
1 / 2 hour, it is wasting too much water. Much
not going to serve the root if it is sandy soil, because water is draining into the deep.
Very important: a major plant nutrient is nitrogen
and is the most easily washed by overwatering.
Much is lost, is lost q compost and fertilizer put on him.
So it's good have a good% of soil organic matter, because it makes a little more foam on the floor.
If sandy soil does not retain much water, so you have to add fertilizer. In the countryside, said that the payment will fatten the soil.
This allows the soil to help retain water better. The
need watering a garden?
have to water 5 minutes or 10 minutes per square meter of attention to watering.
- open the tap
- wait 5 minutes
-
relocate
What are millimeters of rain rained?
When we heard that it rained 10 mm, it amounts to?
- 1mm of rain is equivalent to 1 liter of water by 1 m2
- 10mm are 10 liters of water by 1 m2
That is the ratio of the amount of water that fell.
So if I hear it rained 10 mm of water in the region do not need watering.
1mm is the amount of water falling on a hectare (an apple)
it affect irrigation to fertilization?
When water falls on soil, water 1mm lowers the nutrient layer about 3 cm. Ie water for 10 mm, lowers fertilizer nutrients and almost 25 or 30 cm below the surface. If we water more, does not work.
Beware the compost: do not leave uncovered the compost, because lava.
peak hours, when water and when not:
When no water:
At 8 am every rise, at breakfast you spend a lot.
Between 12 and 14 hours at lunchtime
At 6 pm when the kids leave school
At night, 8 or 9, people come from work and is widely used
When Watering: It
water at 6 in the morning, very early when there is little use.
In another good time is 10 to 11:30 am in the morning, but actually the best time is from 1 am because it has + pressure.
