Plant roots also need airation. The root can get water logged and rot. Only water a plant when the soil no longer sticks to your fingers after pressing on it.

Does water affects the rate of photosynthesis?

Too much water is bad for the plant because the roots of the plant will be drowned and too little water will make the roots of the plant dry. So watering the plants at a right time and at a right amount is great for keeping the plant healthy.


Can plants be drowned if over watered?

Yes. If you water a plant too much, the roots become anaerobic, leading to root death. This is because the roots need oxygen to perform cellular respiration.


What do farmers do if they give there plants to much water?

Too much water would hurt the soil; therefore hurting the plant. So they'd just put the plant in new, dry soil.


What type of root does apples have?

Flowering apple tree that is starting to have dry and dying leaves What could possibly be the problem you have had 3 weeks of rain?

Too much rain. When plants are stressed from over-watering, the symptoms are the same as under-watering. In the case of too much water, several things are happening. Roots need oxygen as well as water, when there is no oxygen in the soil, the water doesn't move well into the roots. If root rot has set in from too much water, then no water is moving into the plant at all. Either way, not water is getting to the the top of the plant even though there is an abundance around the roots - the plants are stressed because there is not enough water in the system. Hopefully, it will dry out for you soon and the roots can recover to absorb water again.


What happens to plants if it gets too much sunlight and water?

If a plant gets too much water, the plant will rot. water builds up in the soil until there is no room for oxygen, and the roots die. when the roots die, the plant can no longer take up nutrients, and it slowly rots. otherwise a fungal infection will develop and also rot the plant.
