The water is one of the most fundamental elements in the life of the plants since a bad watering can cause the deterioration or the death of the plant, either by having watered too much or by having done it too little. That said, it has always been said that rainwater is the best for development to be more complete, but there are other types of water and with many of them some doubts arise.
There are some plants that are capable of withstand high salinity conditions since a certain dose is not bad, although it is not good for certain plants, especially those that are very sensitive to it. Salt is a nutrient for plants but if you add too much it can change their chemical composition and lead to serious nutritional imbalances if you administer it via irrigation.
Preliminary considerations
This is the case of salt water, which a priori I tell you kill the plants Since both when there is this type of water, the earth and the roots compete for the same water, so it makes the plants unable to feed in the same way as when you put fresh water and that is when they begin to weaken and lose their properties, reaching in many cases to death.
How to use salt water on plants
Although you can administer it in a fertilizer or compostIf you do it with irrigation, it can cause drought as if you never watered them and that could be too disconcerting since you see the wet soil but in reality the plant is dry, so for irrigation use better fresh water (bottle, tap or rain) since there are too many risks that you run with salt water.
Warmer climates are the most negative for watering with salt water, since in the Cold climates the effects of salt are not as noticeable or decisive as they are lower temperatures. In cold climates they can develop more slowly but do not run the risk of drought or death as in climates where temperatures are higher.
