Have you passion to gardening How often do you water your plants once a week is ok or everyday? Water shortage is one big problem with our city nowadays and I feel the plants too dehydrate!

If I have any plants to water, I would water them as much as they needed. Too many people neglect their plants, but I always like to see what they grow into when I plant them. I always hope they can be healthy and maintain their life for a long time. I haven't planted anything recently, and I also help my friend water his grandparents plants that they have in the backyard of their house, because he lives with them.

Well,I think it depends on the circumstance. Different flowers have different growing habits. Some flowers need plenty of water to grow well while others are just opposite. The weather and temperature also play an extremely important role in the growing of flowers. I like planting flowers very much and I water my plants when they need watering.Thank you and have a nice day!

hi dhawanbm, dear friend, i love plants and i have some on my terrace. we live in a flat here after marriage so we ahve some plants on my terrace as i have a terrace attached to my flat. the plants are all flowering plants no kitchen garden type or something. i water t hem everyday in the morning and then in the evening too. in the morning i sometimes pluck some flowers for my prayer also becasue i love to devote and decorate flowers in my temple. i do that everyday. i keep water that i use in washing my vegetables and all and iuse all that water in plants. i dont just trow it away. and its a long back a very old practice when i was in my school our teacher once told us not to waste water and use it in this way. from that day till today i am using that water plus any other but non chemical water in watering plants.

Hello,Dhawan! Gardening is my hobby.During winter I water once everyday but in summer I water twice daily.The pots are in the roof and they are exposed to sun during the day.So I water them twice.thanx.

well i only have 1 plant in my dormitory, its an indoor plant. it is pretty simple to water it everyday.
it is so sad to hear you got a water problem in your city, hopefully your government will resolve that asap.
