Proper Water is Key

Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy. The process of photosynthesis is a complex one, and it is not fully understood. However, we do know that it involves the conversion of carbon dioxide and water into sugars and oxygen. This process takes place in two stages: the light-dependent reactions and the light-independent reactions. This is how plants grow and create food. Without proper watering, this is unable to happen.

Transpiration

Transpiration is the process by which plants release water vapor from their leaves. It is a form of evapotranspiration, which is the combination of transpiration and evaporation. Transpiration helps to cool plants down, and it also helps them to get rid of waste products. Just like you and me, plants sweat as well. Having enough water will allow this to happen and prevent them from drying out.

Nutrients

Water is the most important nutrient for plants. It is also the most important nutrient for humans. Plants need water to grow and produce food, while humans need water to survive. The distribution of nutrients in plants is different from that in animals. Plants have a vascular system that transports water and nutrients from the roots to all parts of the plant, while animals have a circulatory system that transports blood throughout their bodies.

Without proper watering, these 3 things are unable to happen. Without these three things, your landscape will eventually die. If you need any help with landscaping, contact us today! We have the right tools and expertise to help your landscape thrive.
