How to water Clivia

The number of times and amount of watering for Clivia are different in different environments. The watering period will not be fixed due to the indoor temperature, humidity, size of the flower pot, air permeability of the soil and the influence of the season. We need to consider the watering interval as the environment changes.

1. Knock on the flower pot

Tap the 1/3 of the flowerpot with your finger. If a crisp sound is heard, it means there is enough water in the soil and you should water the flower again after a while. A dull sound indicates that the pot is dry and needs watering.

2. Weigh it

If you are sensitive to weight, pick up the flowerpot to feel the weight before watering, and then pick up the flowerpot to feel it after watering. Over time, you will have a rough idea of ​​the value in your mind. Every time you water, feel the weight of the flower pot to know whether you should water it or not.

3. Humidity detection

Probing is the most direct method. Put your finger 1/3 of the way into the soil (basically the length of your index finger) and feel it. Don’t water if it’s moist. If it’s so damp that you can’t even stick your finger in it, it’s time to water!
