Simferopol: How is watering carried out in the parks and squares of the Crimean capital

According to her, in the Children’s Park and Gagarin Park, manual watering is mainly used, and equipment also comes to the rescue. This is a tractor with a water tank, the capacity of which is 3 thousand liters. In the squares of Trenev, Lenin, Vysotsky, Republic, as well as on the Alley of Cosmonauts, automatic watering is used.

For the safety of plants, watering is carried out mainly at night, as well as early in the morning. Flowers, as well as trees and shrubs up to three years old, are watered regularly, according to the schedule. Park plantings of middle and older age require less frequent watering, as they have a well-developed root system.— emphasizes Galina Fomina.

It is also worth noting that the employees of the institution «Parks of the Capital» maintain the proper condition of automatic irrigation systems in the areas under their jurisdiction. If necessary, repair and restoration work is carried out and broken nozzles are replaced. We kindly ask visitors to the parks not to walk or play on the lawns. Since this most often leads to the breakdown of irrigation nozzles. And in such hot weather, stopping the irrigation system threatens the death of plants.
