How to Choose a Good Plastic Watering Can? Tips and Tricks
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Well, hey there! Let’s yak a bit ’bout them plastic waterin’ cans, ya know? The ones ya lug around to keep yer plants happy. I ain’t no fancy gardener, but I’ve used a can or two in my time, lemme tell ya. So, what’s the big deal ’bout pickin’ one, right? More than ya think, honey, more than ya think.

First off, how big is yer garden, anyhow? Ya got a few pots on the porch? Then a little bitty can, maybe one of them holdin’ a quart or a gallon, that’ll do ya just fine. Don’t go breakin’ yer back luggin’ around somethin’ huge if ya don’t need to. But if ya got a whole mess of plants, a real spread, then ya gonna want somethin’ bigger. Think two or three gallons, somethin’ ya don’t gotta keep runnin’ back and forth to the faucet with. That’s just plain silly, ain’t it? Size matters, they say, and with waterin’ cans, it sure does.

Now, let’s talk ’bout that plastic stuff. I know, I know, some folks say metal’s better. And maybe it is, if ya got money to burn. But plastic, well, it’s cheaper, plain and simple. And if ya ain’t got a lot of coin, a plastic waterin’ can is better than nothin’ at all. That’s what I always say. It’ll get the job done, and that’s what counts, right? It might not last forever, but nothin’ does these days, does it? And if it breaks, well, ya just get another one. No biggie.

  • Easy to carry: Plastic cans are light, ya know? Even when they’re full of water. That’s a big plus for an old gal like me.
  • Cheap as dirt: Like I said, they don’t cost a fortune. Ya can find ’em pretty much anywhere.
  • Lots of choices: They come in all sorts of colors and sizes. Ya can even get fancy ones if ya want.

But there’s some things ya gotta watch out for, too. Some of them plastic cans are flimsy, ya know? They crack and leak, and that’s just a pain in the neck. So, look for one that feels sturdy. And make sure the handle is comfy, ’cause yer gonna be holdin’ onto that thing for a while. And the spout, that’s important too. Ya want one that pours nice and even, not splashin’ all over the place. Nobody wants a wet shirt when they’re waterin’ the flowers.

Choosing the right watering can ain’t rocket science. It’s just about thinkin’ ’bout what ya need. Ya know, yer plants, yer garden, and how much water ya gotta haul around. And yer budget, of course. Don’t go spendin’ a fortune on somethin’ fancy if ya don’t have to. A good waterin’ can is just a tool, ya know? Somethin’ to help ya keep them plants alive and lookin’ pretty.

And speakin’ of pretty, that’s another thing to think about. I mean, why not get a can that looks nice? They got all sorts of colors these days, so ya can find one that matches yer flowers, or yer house, or whatever. It ain’t gonna make the waterin’ any easier, but it might make ya smile a little, and that’s worth somethin’, ain’t it? I always say, a little bit of pretty goes a long way.

So, there ya have it. My two cents on plastic waterin’ cans. Nothin’ fancy, just plain common sense. Get one that’s the right size, sturdy enough to last a while, and easy to carry. And if it’s pretty, well, that’s just a bonus. Now get out there and water them plants, they’re thirsty!

And remember, takin’ care of your garden, it ain’t just about waterin’. It’s about payin’ attention, ya know? Lookin’ at your plants, seein’ what they need. Sometimes they need more water, sometimes less. Sometimes they need a little somethin’ extra, like some fertilizer or somethin’. Just keep an eye on ‘em, and they’ll do just fine. Gardening, it’s a lot like life, ya know? Ya gotta put in the effort to get somethin’ good out of it.

One last thing, don’t forget to clean your waterin’ can every now and then. Just rinse it out with some water, maybe a little soap if it’s real dirty. That’ll keep it from gettin’ all gunked up and nasty. And it’ll help your plants stay healthy too, ‘cause ya don’t want to be waterin’ them with dirty water, do ya? That’s just common sense, ain’t it? Alright, I’m done yappin’ now. Go on, get to waterin’!
