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. == ==
Why Does hot water kill plant seeds?
Hot water can kill plant seeds because it can denature the proteins and enzymes essential for seed germination. Exposing seeds to high temperatures can disrupt cellular membranes and cause irreversible damage to vital seed structures, preventing germination. Additionally, hot water can also stimulate the release of compounds that inhibit seed germination.
Give three conditions which would cause water loss from a plant to increase?
High temperatures, low humidity, and windy conditions can all increase water loss from a plant through transpiration. These factors can lead to faster evaporation of water from the plant's leaves and an increased demand for water uptake from the roots.
Does boiling hot room temp. cold or ice water affect plant growth?
Boiling water can harm plant roots by damaging them due to excessive heat. Room temperature water is ideal for plant growth as it is easily absorbed by the roots. Cold or ice water can shock the plant, especially if it is a tropical plant not accustomed to cold temperatures.
What happens if you put a plant in cold water?
While ice cold water can shock the roots of a plant, hot water can actually be worse. Boiling or near boiling water can damage the fine roots of plants, inhibiting water take-up by the roots. Room temperature water is best, especially for watering house plants. If you have a dried-out peat based potting soil, warm (not hot) water can help the peat to re-hydrate. Hot water on foliage can also be detrimental - many leaves are sensitive to direct extreme temperatures, which is one reason that boiling water can be an effective organic herbicide to treat small weedy tasks, like grass growing in sidewalk cracks.
What if you only poured hot water on the plant once will it die?
There are several variables here. How hot was the hot water, how much hot water did you pour, which species of plant did you pour it on, and how large was the plant. It is possible to kill a plant with hot water, but I believe that the probability is that it won't die.
Does hot water affect plant growth?
it takes about 700 mls of hot water to affect a plant from growing
Will a plant grow in hot water?
No.
What plant dies faster with cold water or hot water?
either of the two will do...... i guess both cold and hot water makes plant die faster.
What grows faster a plant in hot or cold water?
Hot because hot water could act as sunlight
Why is it not advisable to water the plant at midday or during a hot day?
If the weather is hot and it is warmest during midday, most of the water evaporates therefore the plant does not get the water it needs and the water is wasted (evaporation)
Will microwaved water kill a plant?
Only if the water is too hot.
Would a plant grow faster with cold or hot water?
Hot water because it could act as sunlight.
How do you remove top of a hot water heater?
There is no way short of cutting it off. Hot water tanks are not made to be opened.
Can plants germinate with hot water?
Depends upon how hot. Not too hot is fine, but too hot would kill the plant.
What is the relationship between water temperature and plant growth?
Water temperature can majorly change how a plant grows. Too cold or too hot water can make a plant not be able to grow at all.
Can hot water make the plant height decrease?
no, but it might make it die
