1、 Watering method

1, spray: because azalea love humidity, so when watering, spray can be used to create a humid environment for replenish moisture. This is more conducive to its growth

2. Flood irrigation: water from the edge of the flowerpot until water flows out of the drain hole at the bottom, which proves that it has been fully watered

3. Water replenishment: when the flowerpot is relatively large and the indoor ventilation is not strong, its pot soil is likely to be dry, but the interior is still wet. At this time, as long as the dry part above is properly hydrated and wetted

4. Sitting water: if conditions permit, you can regularly use sitting water to replenish water for it. Find a basin larger than the flowerpot, pour in clean water, immerse 1 / 2 of the flowerpot in water for 2-3 minutes, and let the water penetrate into the soil from the bottom hole

2、 Watering time

In spring and autumn, it is best to water in the morning and evening. In summer, it is best to water in the early morning or an hour after the sun sets in the afternoon. In winter, it is best to water between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m

3、 Water quality

The water for the azalea should be clean and clean. Because it is sensitive to salt, if the salt content in the water is high, its growth will be inhibited and the root system will have problems. Therefore, it is necessary to water it with water with low salt content. In addition, it likes slightly acidic water. When watering, the pH value should be adjusted to meet its needs

4、 Water temperature

When watering, pay attention to the water temperature to make it close to the temperature of the basin soil, so as not to cause unnecessary damage

5、 Precautions

Water properly and keep the basin soil slightly moist. The soil shall not be allowed to dry thoroughly, nor shall ponding be generated in the soil
