A new gardening question of the day appears every day of the year on the front page of Almanac.com. Below is the answer to one of the questions from our Gardening Questions and Answers Archive where you can find over 400 more gardening questions (with answers!).
Does it matter whether the water I use on my garden is hot or cold?
Some think it does matter and recommend tepid water. They allege that foliage will grow vigorously and flowers be larger if you always water with warm water, rather than some, say, directly from a very cold well or cistern. If this is a challenge for you, just fill up a large container and let it stand until the water warms up.
