How often should you water your strawberries?

Strawberries require a lot of water during the growing period and are very afraid of drought. They need to be watered more during the growing period and watered when the soil is dry and wet. The plant's requirement for water is not particularly high. In addition to watering with tap water, you can also water it with rice water or milk water, which can make the strawberries grow better.

1. Watering in spring

The climate is warm in spring. If you grow strawberries, it is enough to water them once every 3-5 days, and the watering must be thorough.

2. Watering in summer

The temperature is high in summer and water evaporates quickly. Generally, strawberries should be watered once a day, and after July, the strawberry leaves should be sprayed appropriately.

3. Watering in autumn

Strawberries grow rapidly in autumn and generally need to be watered every 2-3 days to meet the growth needs of the plants.

4. Watering in winter

Strawberries must be watered less in winter, once a week is enough. If there is too much water, the plants may be frozen.

Things to note when watering strawberries

1. Strawberries can be watered with milk. Milk is rich in nutrients and can make the strawberries grow very large, but the cost is relatively high.

2. If the strawberries are grown in a greenhouse, management after watering is also very important. You need to check the weather forecast. If it is the rainy season, the greenhouse needs to be closed.
