A Lima bean plant likes dry climate with moderate water, so if you keep the soil soaking wet the roots will rot. I recommend watering once every day while sprouting and then watering as needed.

How much water do you water a plant with?

It's best to water a plant with enough water to moisten the soil thoroughly, allowing excess water to drain out. The amount will vary depending on factors like the plant type, size of the pot, and environmental conditions. Water until the soil is moist but not waterlogged.


Can a bean plant grow without sunlight but with fertilizer and water?

Seed can germinate with very less sunlight and by absorbing nutrients from the soil. However, sunlight is very important if a seed has to grow into a plant. Without sunlight there is no life.


What effect does the amount of water have on plant growth?

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.


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

Too much water and it will become root-bound ... the ground surrounding the plant will get moldy and then stricken the plant with diseases. Don't think a plant can get too much sunlight ... there's a difference between "sunlight" and "full sun". Sunlight is somewhat diffused.


If a plant is placed in salt water what will most likely happen to the cells of the plant?

If you give plants that are adapted to living on land water that is very salty, it will reverse the osmotic potential in their roots and actually cause water to be removed from the cells of the plant and make them shrivel up, thus leading the plant to experience drought stress even if the soil is moist. A similar process is what causes cucumbers to turn into pickles when they are soaked in brine and vinegar.There are however, plants that are adapted to salty soil and saltwater. These plants have much more effective water intake systems that can overcome this reversal in osmotic potential provided that the salt concentration in the water isn't too high. Seaweed, for example, has a very high salt tolerance. Plants such as Alkali Sacaton and Russian Thistle have a somewhat lower salt tolerance than seaweed, but a higher one than your typical ornamental plant that you may have at home.

Can Adding Salt to water to water bean Plants kill the bean Plant?

Adding too much salt to water can be harmful to bean plants as it can disrupt the osmotic balance of the plant, making it difficult for the roots to absorb water and nutrients. This can lead to dehydration and eventually death of the plant. It is important to ensure a proper balance of nutrients in the soil for healthy plant growth.

How much water a plant need to growe?

That depends on what kind of plant it is. Some plants, such as cactus, do not need much water. Other kinds of plants need more. So you would have to ask about a specific plant in order to get a specific answer.It really depends on the plant. Some plants need more water than others, such as a cactus and a bean ,the bean needs more water than the cactus because the cactus stores water and beans don't.


Will soaking red kidney beans help them sprout?

Yes. It will loosen the shell on the bean and give the bean life. If you soak them for 3 - 4 days, the red kidney bean will sprout without having to plant it in soil, but if you soak a red kidney bean just overnight and then plant it in soil, the bean will be much more likely to grow by a great deal.


How much water does a plant give off?

Plants only give off a little amount of water because there is no way a plant can give off a lot of water. Plants get their water from the runoff, groundwater, and precipitation.

Is rainwater better for pot plants than tap water?

Yes because rain water has much more nutrients than tap water. If you were to put tap water in a plant all the led and the backteria is going into your plant. If it is a bean plant and you're putting tap water in a edible plant then you are going to eat the backteria that is in the tap water.

How can I successfully grow bean seeds to ensure a healthy and thriving bean plant?

To successfully grow bean seeds, plant them in well-draining soil in a sunny spot, water them regularly but not too much, and provide support for the vines to climb. Fertilize the plants with a balanced fertilizer and watch out for pests and diseases. Harvest the beans when they are mature for the best taste.
