1. how to water the desert roses

Desert roses are particularly drought-resistant and are afraid of water accumulation. In normal times, it is best to wait until the soil is nearly dry before watering. In spring, summer, and autumn, water thoroughly until water flows out from the bottom of the basin. In winter, when the temperature is low, slip some water along the edge of the basin and do not water thoroughly.

1. Weighing the basin method: First of all, we can judge whether the desert rose is short of water by weighing the basin method.Weighing the weight of potting soil at ordinary times, the feeling is obviously lighter, which means that the plant is short of water and can be watered.

2. Knock the basin method: If you are a desert rose planted in a pottery basin or earthen basin, you can knock the basin wall with your knuckles. If it makes a clear sound, it means that the plant is short of water and can be watered.

3. Touch the soil: You can also touch the soil 3cm below with your hand. If you feel dry, it means that the plant is short of water and can be watered.

4. Bamboo stick method: If the soil is too dirty, you can insert a bamboo stick along the edge of the basin and pull it out to have a look. If the bottom of the bamboo stick is dry, it means that the plant is short of water and can be watered.
