From outlook to action
Advice that changes as the ground does.
The same daily answer, worked through for what's actually in your garden.
Recent rain and today's conditions are weighed together, so a dry forecast doesn't automatically mean "water now."
Pots, new planting and thirsty borders behave differently. Otter keeps the main answer clear while flagging what's worth a separate check.
Restrictions, translated for gardeners
Know what you're still allowed to do.
If restrictions apply where you live, Otter shows the official position for your postcode plus what it actually means for watering cans, new planting and everyday garden use. The published notice always remains the source of truth, including any exemptions.
