When watering is completed, the plant foliage dries quickly. The rapid drying of plant foliage helps guard against the development of fungal diseases. All varieties, whether planted in pots or in the ground, indoors or out, prefer morning watering. Watering in the morning also helps prevent the appearance of certain diseases and pests.
