Common advice: you should not water the garden at midday because the water droplets act like magnifying glasses and will burn leaves. Is this true?
There are other similar beliefs that have nothing to do with plants. Many dermatology websites say that water droplets on skin will burn it. In the forest industry, it is believed that a rain drop can heat dry leaves to the point of ignition and cause forest fires.
Common sense and science will reveal the truth.
