Most rain water falls in the winter, so now is the time to collect it.
As our climate changes & an increasing proportion of rain falls in
winter, it is becoming cost effective to invest in water storage.
- Rainwater can be collected, and stored in tubs and other containers,
from the roof of dwellings, garages, greenhouses etc.. - Check your local water authority website as they often have offers on
water butts. - Invest in a watering can, it uses less water than a hose.
- If you prefer to use a hosepipe, fit a trigger nozzle to control the flow.
- Mulches such as wood chips, bark and gravel help to prevent water
evaporation and also suppress weed growth, saving you both water and
time spent weeding.
