When watering Florist Kalanchoe, one of the principles to be followed is not to dry or not to water, but to water it thoroughly. This means that when watering, you need to wait until the soil is completely dry before watering, or rotten roots may appear.
Generally, in order to determine whether the longevity flower needs watering, you can use a bamboo stick to insert into the soil. If you find moisture on the bamboo stick after taking it out, it means that the soil is relatively wet, and it's better not to water
Basically, when watering, keep the basin soil moist. When watering, be sure to pour it thoroughly. Water slowly with fine water. You can pour it back and forth several times. Be careful not to pour it too hard.
When watering, it is not recommended to use soaking basin method.
Another principle to be followed in watering Florist Kalanchoe is that it is better to be dry than wet.
Although it is said that the longevity flower needs to keep a moist soil when watering, especially when its flower buds grow, but in some time periods, watering must pay attention to dry rather than wet. These two periods are cold winter and hot summer. When the temperature is higher than 35 ℃ or lower than 8 ℃, the water should be cut off.
In summer, when the temperature is high and the evaporation is fast, people will think that the soil is dry, and then they often water it. But in fact, in summer, the air humidity is very high. Although the surface of the soil is dry, the bottom is still not dry, so when watering at this time, it is easy to cause soil moisture and root rot. In winter, if watering, the water temperature should be close to the indoor temperature, but do not water as much as possible, so as to avoid frostbite and rot of plants.
