WATERING PLANTS WITH HoT WATER
1t has lately been shown by careful experiment
that sickly potted plants, even some that have
almost died out, can be greatly benefited and
sometimes indeed entirely restored to vigour by
applying warm water to them instead Of cold.
In certain cases, oleanders which had never
bloomed, or did so only imperfectly, after be-
ing treated with luke warm water, increasing
the temperature gradually from 40 degrees up
to ITO degrees Fahrenheit produced the most
suits occurred with other plants, some Of which
had nearly withered away. In all these cases
the application of water heated to about l4C
degrees Fahrenheit, without any other precau-
ton, caused new and fourishing growth.
