This releases the nutrients slowly and continuously so that the plant is evenly supplied over a longer period of time. - If the plant is watered less frequently but thoroughly and penetratingly, the plant roots are encouraged to penetrate into deeper soil layers. This enables the plant to survive dry periods better. - In harsh locations, sun protection is only recommended in the event of frost.
