Watering at this time of day may be quietly causing fungal disease in your garden

Gardeners can prevent plant diseases by watering at the right time. Fungal spores need moisture to spread. Watering in the early morning or late evening keeps leaves wet for too long. This allows pathogens to infect plants. Watering deeply and less often reduces wet periods. Pruning and proper spacing also help leaves dry faster.
