The process by which water is taken into a plant from the soil is called "absorption." This occurs primarily through the plant's roots, where water is absorbed via osmosis. The absorbed water then moves upward through the plant via the xylem, supplying necessary hydration for various physiological processes.
Depending on the plant of course - in winter all of it.
by the amount of it in the plant and how much sunlight it gets
When planting any plant you need to compress the soil around the plant. Not too much just enough so the plant cannot be pulled out (or blown out)of the soil easily.
no
i think so
No too much of one nutrient was taken out of the soil to create a soil disbalance
Soluble is the form in which elements are taken up in fertilizers. That's why there must be some kind of irrigating, spraying or watering after fertilizer is applied. In fact, the lack of adequate soil moisture is the reason why plant necessary nutrients may be present in the soil but unavailable for being taken up by plant roots.
it is a cutting
If a plant's soil has too much water, the roots can rot, and the plant can't get enough oxygen from the soil. If there is not enough water for a plant, the nutrients it needs cannot travel through the plant.
There is more water in the plant than there is in the soil so the plant will attempt to even out the ballence by putting some of the water that is contained inside it into the soil which will inturn cause the plant to wilt because of returning so much water to the soil
