Watering
in Fruit & veg
I am a novice to intermediate gardener, i have actually impressed myself this year as my garden is growing amazing, much better then i ever expected it too,
i have about 25 sweet corn plants, 25 sunflowers, and 8 pumpkin plants, everything is doing great, its a fairly large garden,
just a general question....as my plants get bigger and bigger, should i be watering more, less, or pretty much the same as always?
do bigger plants need more water?
i normally water once a day if there is no rain

By a really good soak I mean at least 9 litres (2 gallons) per plant for your Pumpkins or per sq M of ground for smaller plants, if you use a hose & have decent water pressure this means directing the spray at the roots for 1 -2 minutes at a time, time how long it takes to fill can & take it from there.
Hope this helps.
