Hosepipe ban means you can’t use a hosepipe. If you have a big garden and you’re worried about the inconvenience of having to lug a full watering can from the tap to the other end of the garden, that’s part of the point of the hosepipe ban. It makes life more difficult and in doing so forces you to conserve water. Because who can be fucked doing that many watering can trips?
If some of your plants die, well, let’s face it, this climate situation isn’t going to get any better any time soon. Water the ones you love the most and replace the ones that die with something more drought resistant.

QQ, I've never had a garden when there's been a hosepipe ban on before. Assume I can fill a watering can from a hose then water from that?
