How often should I water the fiddle-leaf fig?Fiddle-leaf fig likes moisture, but is not tolerant to waterlogging. During normal maintenance, the soil should be kept slightly moist, but no water accumulation should occur. Just follow the principle of "don't water unless the soil is dry". The watering frequency of plants such as Ficus microcarpa is related to the season. Due to temperature differences, the plant's water requirements are different, so the watering frequency needs to be adjusted flexibly. 1. Watering in spring The temperature in spring is suitable and the plants grow very well in spring, so watering is necessary at this time, and it is best to water them once a day. 2. Watering in summer The temperature is high in summer, and the transpiration of the fiddle-leaf fig will accelerate. It needs to be watered every day. When the temperature is too high, it needs to be replenished with water by spraying or misting. 3. Watering in autumn After entering autumn, the temperature will gradually drop. At this time, there is no need to water the fiddle-leaf fig too much. Generally, watering it once every 3-5 days is sufficient. 4. Watering in winter In winter, the fiddle-leaf fig will enter a dormant period. The plant's respiration slows down and its demand for water decreases. Generally, it only needs to be watered once every one to two weeks, maintaining the principle of watering when the soil is dry and wet. What kind of water is good for fiddle-leaf figDuring the maintenance process of fiddle-leaf fig, it is best to use river water or rainwater for watering. This is soft water and is very helpful for the growth and development of the plant. However, if there is only tap water, it is not impossible, but it needs to be dried for a few days before use. |
