Yes, you can water nematodes with soil water, but there are a few things you need to keep in mind. It is important to make sure that the soil water is clean and does not contain chemicals, such as pesticides, that can be harmful to the nematodes. In addition, the soil must be moist enough for the nematodes to spread properly and do their work.
It is best to use lukewarm water, because this activates the nematodes faster. If the water is too cold or too warm, the nematodes may be less active. So make sure the water has a pleasant temperature, preferably between 15 and 20°C, to activate the nematodes optimally.
Mix the nematodes with 1 liter of water and stir well, this is the concentrate. Then use 1 liter of water for each square meter to distribute the concentrate. So, for example, if you want to control 10 m², add 10 liters of water to the concentrate and distribute it evenly over the ground.
In short, bottom water can be a great way to spread your nematodes, as long as you make sure the water is clean, the right temperature, and you mix and apply the concentrate correctly.
