Over-watering can cause soil erosion and deteriorate the soil\u2019s health. To avoid that, keep a check on how much water your plants are getting. You can move the pots away from the rain or add a protective covering like a perforated sheet.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Turn_the_soil\"><\/span>Turn the soil<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since plants get ample water during the monsoon, the water may get stagnant. Mixing the topsoil will ensure that the water seeps in properly and does not clog the air passages. You can turn the soil with a basic gardening tool like a plough and gently mix the topsoil to let it soak the water and avoid the formation of algae or moss.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Make_provision_for_light\"><\/span>Make provision for light<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The exclusivity of sunlight can be a major issue for outdoor plants as they are dependent on sunlight for growth. Though the country receives ample sunlight, your outdoor plants in the UAE may still store extra sunshine to make sure they don\u2019t suffer. In case the weather turns cloudy, you can fulfil the need with artificial lighting. You can use a white fluorescent light (CFL) or LED light for artificial lighting as both contain a full spectrum of wavelengths necessary for plants.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These were some of the essential points that you should keep in mind during the rainy season. Make sure that your plants are safe from heavy rainfall and winds by keeping an eye on them. Monsoons are good for ferns growth and development, just take care of the above pointers for your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fnp.ae\/outdoor-plants\">outdoor plants in Dubai<\/a>, Sharjah, Abu Dhabi and other UAE cities, and you\u2019ll be good.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Everyone loves the lush green look of the plants in monsoons.
