Set up rainwater or condensation harvesting for a garden

Hard20 points

How to do this

  1. Set up containers to catch the UAE's occasional rain, or scale up condensation collection.
  2. Position them to catch runoff — under a drainpipe or sloped surface.
  3. Cover them to keep them clean and reduce evaporation.
  4. Use the water for the garden.
  5. Photograph your harvesting setup.
