Will water temperature effect plant growth?

Yes it does. The hottest the water is, the fastest the plant will die. This needs a little explanation. As you know the roots under the ground are still weak and not strong at all. So the cells that made up the roots are still young. When you give hot water, it will kill it, because the roots can't hold the hot water. Yes. In a high school biology experiment it was discovered that lukewarm water is more conducive to growth than cold water. However hot water would damage the plant. == ==
