Gardening Without Irrigation: or without much, anyway Industrial farming and modern gardening tend to discount the replacement of surface moisture by capillarity, considering this flow an insignificant factor compared with the moisture needs of crops. Gardening Without Irrigation: or without much, anyway Ground water is held at its height by the fact that its circulation is constantly impeded by capillarity and friction. The Elements of Geology But if they've grown as described above, on deep, open soil, capillarity and surface moisture reserves ensure there usually will be no midday wilting, even if there is no watering. Gardening Without Irrigation: or without much, anyway Though moisture will still rise slowly by capillarity and recharge soil above plowpan, plants obtain much more water by rooting into unoccupied, damp soil.
