Water the leaves of goldenrod and jade to have enough water during growth, but avoid ponding. In spring, it is usually watered once every 4 days.

Water for growing period

June to August is the most vigorous period for this plant. During this period, water them to drink as much as possible, but to avoid the phenomenon of water accumulation, or the root will not be able to breathe, it is easy to break

Seasonal water

Spring

Spring watering can be done approximately every four days. Because at the beginning, this kind of plant doesn't need water so much, at this time, you can choose to gradually increase the amount of water

Summer

Watering in summer should be carried out according to the actual temperature. At the same time, the plants should be placed in a well ventilated place. If the temperature is between 20 ℃ and 25 ℃, it can be watered twice a week as in spring. But when the temperature is too high, we should gradually reduce the water consumption and spray some water around them, so that they can keep the green state and ensure a certain humidity.

Autumn and winter

The main feature of these two seasons is that the environment is relatively dry, so when watering, it is necessary to often spray water on the plant surface and surrounding areas. Watering can be carried out every five days or so, so as not to keep the soil in a moist state for a long time. If the temperature is too low in winter, it is also necessary to control the water content so that the basin soil can be dried.
