What is the way to water? Every day is different. I feel like I can't even water it! Don't worry, Huahua. Let's talk about watering.~

When the soil is dry, water it

Some flower friends are more careful. They always want to water the flowers at home. They think they will grow up soon after watering them.

In fact, they are not as short of water as we think. At this time, when we water them, we can't drink all the flowers and plants, and the flowerpot immediately becomes a "pond".

In fact, to judge whether flowers and plants are thirsty or not, it's OK to look at the soil. Flowers often say that if the soil is dry, water it. How can we judge whether the soil is dry?

1. See if the pot soil is white.

Directly see whether the soil in the basin is white, as shown in the picture above, the soil on the left is light and needs watering; the flower pot on the right is just watered.

2. Rub your fingers

Rub the soil with your fingers to see if it's dry. It's easy to crush the soil into powder. You need to water it quickly

3. Insert a toothpick as a signal

The toothpick can be inserted in the soil. Pay attention to insert along the edge of the flowerpot. It is not easy to tie the root of the flower

Long bamboo sticks can also be inserted into the soil for 3-5cm

Pull out the sign. If you see that the soil layer is 2 cm below the soil layer (green distance above) before it begins to get wet, it means that the basin soil has begun to dry. If it is more than 2 cm, it will be very dry. Please water it immediately.

When to water

Do you want to water it when you think about it? If you don't think about it, don't water it. Flowers will forget occasionally, you know, no matter when you water them, it's better not to water them.

1. Water in the morning (6:00-9:00)

The temperature at night is low. After a night, the temperature in the flowerpot is also low. Watering in the early morning will not affect their metabolism or hurt their roots.

It's refreshing to finish watering the flowers early in the morning.

2. Can we water it at noon?

At noon, the temperature is the highest in a day, and the internal activities of flowers and plants are relatively fast. At this time, the watering basin and soil will suddenly cool down, which will hurt them.

At noon, the sun is big, the flowers may be a little wilting, don't worry, wait and water ~

But noon in winter is a good time for watering, because the temperature of noon in winter is the highest in the day, and the circulation of flowers and plants begins to be normal, so it is suitable for watering. It's too cold to water sooner or later.

3. Water in the evening (18:00-20:00).

After the temperature drops in the evening, feel the temperature of the flowerpot. As long as it is normal, you can water it. At this time, it's not suitable to water it thoroughly. Just wet the surface of the flowerpot a little.

What kind of water is good

1. Tap water

I believe that we all directly water the tap water, flowers and grass which so many things!

But tap water contains chlorine and other elements, and water in different places has acid and alkali, some of which are not conducive to plant growth.

We can put the tap water on the balcony for a few days and then pour it again.

2. Pond, lake water

Clear pond and lake water can be used for watering flowers. There are some microbial nutrients in it, which are very suitable for watering orchids, roses, camellia and some large flowers.

You can decorate the clean ones, put them on for a day or two, precipitate the impurities and use them again.

3. Rain

Rain Water

Rain water can also water flowers, but not all can, such as air pollution is serious, but the rain is very dirty.

If the environment is good, you can catch the rain to water the flowers.

Pay attention to put it for 1-2 days to precipitate the impurities and use it again.
