Detailed explanation-1: -Plants need food and water for their survival; they get it from the soil. When the soil of your plant contains a good amount of water, nutrients can be absorbed by the plant roots because water solubilizes all the nutrients in the soil and makes it available to the plant roots.
Detailed explanation-2: -Organic material, such as coconut coir, peat moss, or even compost, will absorb water, retaining moisture that plants can use during dry spells. Organic material also improves the structure, aeration and overall health of the soil, resulting in better long-term success for your garden.
Detailed explanation-3: -Water is used for transpiration carrier of nutrients from the soil to green plant tissues. Water forms over 90% of the plant body by green or fresh weight basis. Plants can synthesis food through photosynthesis only in the presence of water in their system. Water helps to maintain the turgidity of cell walls.
