If the soil is dry, pour it

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

In fact, they are not as short of water as we thought. At this time, once they are watered, they 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, just look at the soil. Flowers often say that if the soil is dry, pour it. How to judge whether the soil is dry or not

1. See if the basin soil turns white

Directly check whether the soil in the basin is white. As shown in the figure above, the soil on the left is light in color 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 is dry. The soil is easy to be crushed and powdered. You should water it quickly

3. Insert a toothpick as a signal

You can insert the toothpick into the soil. Be careful to insert it along the edge of the flowerpot. It is not easy to get to 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 begins to bring moisture 2 cm below the soil layer (green distance above), it means that the basin soil has begun to dry. If it exceeds 2 cm, it will be very dry. Water it quickly~

When is it watered

Do you water it when you remember it, and not when you can't remember it? Huahua will forget occasionally. You know, watering indiscriminately at any time will really kill the flowers. It's better not to water

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

The temperature is low at night. After one night, the temperature of the flower pot is also low. Watering early in the morning will not affect their metabolism or hurt their roots~

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

2. Can you water it at noon

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

It's sunny at noon, and the flowers may be a little wilted. Don't worry, wait and water~

However, noon in winter is a good time for watering, because the temperature at noon in winter is the highest in a day, and the internal circulation of flowers and plants begins to be normal. At this time, it is suitable for watering. Sooner or later, it's too cold to water

3. Watering is available 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, you should not water it thoroughly. Just wet the surface of the flowerpot a little~

What kind of water is good

1. Tap water

I believe everyone has directly poured tap water. There are so many things about flowers and plants

However, tap water contains chlorine and other elements, and the 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 before watering ~ it's much better

2. Pond and lake water

Relatively clear pond and lake water can be used for watering flowers. There are some microbial nutrients in it, which is very suitable for watering orchids, roses, camellias and some large flowers and plants~

If you encounter a clean one, you can decorate it back, put it on for a day or two, precipitate the impurities, and then use it again~

3. Rain

Rain can also water flowers, but not all can. For example, in places with serious air pollution, rain is very dirty

If the flower friends have a good home environment, you can connect the rain to water the flowers~

Note that it is still necessary to deposit impurities for 1-2 days before reuse~

That's all about watering flowers
