Applicable plant

This method is suitable for semi negative plants that like warmth and humidity and are not resistant to flood, such as Clivia, green rose, Chlorophytum, white palm, crab claw orchid, dripping Guanyin, etc

Note: using the dry wet alternate method, it is difficult to grasp the dry and wet conditions of the soil and the watering time. You can insert a bamboo stick to judge it. Pull it out every few days. When the color turns yellow and white, you can water it
