Default Watering can is good for...?

I agree with using a "rain wand", but as I read the post I was replying to,
the idea was to justify the purchase of a watering can.
Imagine that; it's raining in Washington State....

A good water can will last many years. I am 55 years old and still using
the
metal watering can I vaguely remember my parents buying when I was 3 of 4
years old.

LOL, Ken.


I replace my "rain wand" pretty much every year.
It's only about 7.00 at Lowe's and it's a godsend for delicate plants
and new beds.

I LOVE that thing!

I guess it'd be similar to using a watering can, but it attaches to the
hose so is good for wider application.

I also use it for pots in the greenhouse.
