> you don't spray water on leaves as shown in the video

That’s pretty much what happens when plants get “watered” naturally though… I’m thinking about rain of course

From my understanding gathered from grandparents, problems occur when watering under the sun because droplets act like magnifier and burn the leaves.

Watering the soil means you don't need to care about the sun.
