The skill of seeing dry is to wait until the soil layer and inside are relatively dry, and then water, but not wait until all are dry, as long as the soil surface is dry, it can be judged by many methods, such as knocking around the flowerpot, eye observation, finger extension, pinching and twisting the soil layer, etc. The skill of seeing wet is that every time you water it, you need to pour it through, and it can flow out of the hole at the bottom of the flowerpot.

I. see how to do it

See the skill of drying is to wait until the soil layer and inside are dry, and then water, note that can not wait until all dry, can be judged by many methods

1. Percussion: you can tap around the flowerpot gently with your knuckles. If it makes a crisp sound, it means that the pot soil has dried out and can be watered. If it's a dull sound, it means that the basin soil is still very wet, so it doesn't need to be watered for the time being

2. Visual inspection: by observing the color of the basin soil surface, if the color becomes light and gray, it means that it is dry.

3. Finger measurement: you can insert your finger into the basin soil for about 2cm. If you feel very dry and hard, it means that the basin soil is dry.

4. Pinch and twist: gently pinch and twist the soil on the surface with your hand. If the soil is powdery, it means that the soil is completely dry and can be watered immediately.

Two, see wet skill

The skill of seeing wet is that every time watering needs to be done thoroughly, and water can flow out from the hole at the bottom of the flowerpot, instead of pouring only half of the water, that is to say, when the upper part is wet and the lower part is dry. The root is mainly at the bottom of the flowerpot. If only half of the water is poured, it is equivalent to no water.
