This is exactly why we want  to show you the farmer’s method that will help you water the vegetable plants in your garden for about a month effortlessly and for free. You don’t have to go every day to water them, but go every now and then to check that everything is working properly.

Below, in the next paragraph, we will show you everything in detail how you can implement this method.  You don’t need to buy anything  since we will be using a very common item in the house. Here are all the details you need to know.

How to water plants for a month

As mentioned earlier, this method can be useful if you are away from home for a few days.  You will need a large plastic bottle  . The larger the bottle, the more days you don’t have to water your plants. Now make a mark with a felt-tip pen about 15 cm from the floor and 10 cm from the neck.

Connect and an internal line is created that serves as a guide for the position in which the bottle should be placed on the plant. Just below the line, about 3 inches from the ground, make a small dot to pierce. You can do this with an awl or heated garnish iron.

The hole should be small and not too big  . Now fill the bottle with water. Not all of them, but to the beginning of the previously drawn line. Now close the bottle tightly with the cap. It’s time to place the bottle near the plant.

Place the bottle in the ground

You can also use this method in the garden, requiring you to get close to the plant and lightly dig up some soil to place the bottle.  The bottle must be buried to the starting point of the previously created line  . Remember to have the side of the bottle with the hole facing the plant.

Now cover with soil again. Then open the cap and fill the bottle completely. Now close the cap again. Once the bottle is closed, the water level no longer drops and  only comes out again when the plant wants it or when the soil is dry  . It will be drop by drop.

This way you can be sure that your plants are always watered  and you don’t have to remember to water the plants every day. This method is particularly suitable for  vegetables planted in the garden  . But there are other methods for potted plants such as the bottle and string method.
