[header] How to collect water from plants [title] Choose the right plant. [step] You should use a healthy, intact plant that is actively growing because a dead or dormant plant will not provide water vapor that you can collect. Plants that are water-loving, such as willows or cottonwoods, are the best option, but you can use any variety with leaves.
[substeps] The larger the leaves on your plant are the better. That's because a large leaf surface will usually produce more water vapor than plants with small leaves.
