Warmer summer weather can lead to longer dry periods that can endanger your plants. Fortunately, there are ways to mitigate the effects of the warm weather. Here are four tips that will save your plants: You should water your plants in the morning or evening when it's cooler. Watering in the middle of the day is pointless as the water evaporates in the heat. Potted plants should be protected from direct sunlight, and the soil should be kept slightly moist. Extreme heat can cause plants to wilt or get sunburned, so gardening experts advise against planting new plants in hot weather. It's also best to avoid fertilizing plants in the warm season as this can cause burns. It's best to wait until it gets wet again.
