Thanks for being open for questions about <a title="gardening" href="http://gardenersvoice.com/category/gardening/">gardening</a> because I really want to grow more of our own plants in the next few months. <a href="http://gardenerstips.co.uk/blog/gardening/questions-on-gardenening/">from: Gardeners Questions</a></em></p> <p>The best time of the day to water plants is in evening or early morning. This is mainly because the watering will be more efficient. Away from glare of sun, the water has time to seep into soil before evaporating.
