Bans are being introduced after England experienced its driest July since 1935.
But there are some exceptions when a hosepipe can be used:To fill pools needed for medical treatmentHow can you save water?Leigh Johnstone, known as the Beardy Gardener on TikTok, says there are lots of ways to save water
Mr Johnstone, who started gardening in lockdown to help with his mental health, suggested using a water butt to collect rain water - best kept in the shade and with a lid on. He also advised cutting off the end of a plastic bottle to create a funnel to use when watering plants, to help avoid waste and channel water to the roots of plants.
"As we continue to see extremely high demand, we are urging everyone to carefully consider the amount they are using given the unprecedented conditions," said a Water UK spokesperson. Instead the charity encourages gardeners to use watering cans so they are more selective with how much water they use and the water can get to the roots of the plants.
Dr Gush, from Surrey, said it was an "excellent time" to install a water butt and explained plants preferred rain water because of the acidity levels.
