Drought tolerant plant

Drought tolerant plants don't need to be watered too much, especially all day. It's usually okay not to water for ten days and a half months

Practice:

Before leaving, water the flowers once, pay attention to watering thoroughly, and then put the flowers in a semi shady and windproof place, which can reduce the evaporation of water and avoid sudden temperature changes

Representative plants:

Cactus, succulent, hupilan, asparagus, fortune tree

Hygrophilic plant

Wet loving plants can't be like the above. There may be problems if they don't water for ten days and a half months

Representative plants:

Green pineapple, Chlorophytum, fern

1. Plastic bag

You can water the flowers first, and then put a plastic bag on the flowerpot. Note that it is best to tie several holes in the plastic bag for ventilation. Note that this method is suitable for small potted plants, and large potted plants with many leaves are not suitable

Disadvantages:

It is easy to be airtight, and the bagging time cannot be too long, otherwise the plants are easy to rot

2. Dropping water from hanging bottle

① First prepare a medical intravenous infusion set (sold in major pharmacies, with a unit price of 2 yuan), mineral water bottle, scissors and plastic bag

② The mineral water bottle cap is pierced with scissors and the infusion set is inserted into the bottle cap hole. Then tie the bottle with a plastic bag and hang it high. And poke several small holes at the bottom of the mineral water bottle as the air inlet

③ This step is very important to adjust the water outlet speed of the infusion set. It is recommended that you test at home now, such as how much water the flowers at home need in a day, and then calculate the size of plastic bottles and water outlet speed according to the number of days to go out

Disadvantages: if the speed of drip irrigation cannot be controlled, it is likely to cause excessive watering

3. Bottle handstand

Fill a bottle with water and fill it with water

Disadvantages:

The water depth is slow

4. Plastic bag punching

Fill a plastic bag with water, prick a small hole at the bottom of the bag with a needle and put it in the flower pot. The small hole is close to the soil, and the water will slowly leak out to wet the soil, but the size of the hole should be well controlled to avoid water leakage too fast

Disadvantages:

The size of plastic bags should be controlled, and the holes should not be too many, otherwise there will be too much water leakage and it is easy to waterlogging

5. Towel diversion

Put a washbasin full of water next to the flowerpot. Put one end of a towel with good water absorption in the washbasin and bury the other end in the flowerpot. In this way, water can be transported to the flowerpot through the towel, which can keep the flowerpot moist for about half a month. Note that the washbasin must be higher than the flowerpot

You can also use fine wool, immerse the fine wool in water, and then bury the other end of the wool in the soil. As shown in the figure below

Disadvantages:

The water container in the middle must be higher than the flowerpot! Only in this way can the water flow down

6. Basin sitting method

Prepare a large basin with a diameter one circle larger than the flowerpot. First pour water into the flowerpot, then put the flowers together with the basin into the large basin, and then put water into the large basin. The height of the water should not exceed half the height of the soil in the flowerpot, and finally put it in the semi shade. The water in the big pot is sent into the soil through the small hole at the bottom of the flowerpot

Disadvantages:

Easy to cause rotten roots

7. Buried sand method

In principle, it is similar to the "sitting water" above. For some small and exquisite flowers and plants, even the basin can be buried in the wet sand to keep the soil moist. In addition, in order to maintain the moisture of the sand, we can use the mineral water bottle, tie several small holes in the mineral water bottle, fill it with water, and then put the bottle into the wet sand

Disadvantages:

It is also a short-term strategy, which is easy to rot in the long run
