When slips of flowers are first put into the ground they want more water than they will require afterwards. When they have sent out more roots, and these roots have produced abundant fibers to search through the soil for moisture, they will not require much of the gardener’s care, but just now they must have it, or die; therefore, I say, let the feeble, the weak, the young beginners in grace be watered most anxiously and lovingly by all who seek their good.
— C. H. Spurgeon (1834 – 1892)
