Soil Temperature: The rate of water absorption increases with a rise in soil tempera’ tire. lint this rise to a limit. and Soil air: Water absorption also needs energy. This energy is released in the process of respiration. . Root system: The absorption of %utter also depends on root system of plants. Some plants ha % e well developed root system

1. Leaf area - the major factor drawing water is the leaves transpiring - which of course is necessary for photosynthesis. The leaves draw water through capilliary action, thus overcoming gravity.
2. Temperature - depending on the plant species, the stomata open and close, enhancing or slowing transpiration. So, on a cool to moderately warm day the stomata will be wide open, transpiration will be maximised, water demand as well. The stomata never fully close on most plants.
3. Wind. On the surface of the leaf (again, in most plant species - especially in deciduous plants (such as grapes!), there is a “lamina layer” of water vapour on the surface. This enhances vapour exchange with the atmosphere (as part of photosynthesis). Once again as for temperature, as the wind speed increases the stomata begin to close. In high winds and especially on hot days with high winds, the turgor pressure causes the leaf to wilt as it cannot maintain sufficient pressure inside the cells.
4. Humidity - again depending on species, the humidity will affect the rate of transpiration, so that on a very hot day, at low humidity the stomata will also close in order to maintain turgor. ….. high, winds and hot days.
