First, could some one please confirm or dismiss this theory? I
for one have never seen any plants get burned from water drops (and
it doesn't even seem possible).
Second, if it's not true, please people, stop telling others that
water droplets can burn plants! I recall being told about this many
times as a kid and I can't ever recall seeing any damage caused by
getting water on plants during the day. Have you?
