When watering her plants, Stela adds enough water to the soil to completely wet it. How will this help in plant growth?

Well, she waters it enough so that the soil isn't just absorbing it all. That makes sure that the plant gets water too.

The roots of plants are able to self-regulate the amount of water they take in. Therefore, by adding this amount of water, Stela is insuring that the plant will have as much water as it needs to grow.
