Trying to keep the garden healthy and giving them a brief hand water every day in the recent heat. Noticed they’re going a bit yellow after a few weeks having been so nice and green coming off winter.
I also fertilise twice a year. Not sure if this is enough? Should I switch to monthly maybe?
Not for lack of water anyway. So, I’m wondering about water composition and how it affects the garden. It’s just regular tap water. Not bore. Any knowledge to share? What fertiliser and water regime keeps your garden really nice?
If you’re watering them during the day the water droplets act like magnifying glasses and promote scorching. Also daily watering could be causing root rot.

Are these in ground plants or in pots? What type of plants? Is it all the plants or just ones in a certain area? Do you use mulch? What type of dirt do you have i e. Is it sandy or do you add compost etc? All these things can influence nutrient uptake, so let is know what you have and maybe some pics of leaves and we can help a little more
Be certain your tap water isn’t softened. Softened water contain an elevated amount of salt that is harmful to plants.
