How often should I water my iron tree?

The cycad is a gymnosperm of the genus Cycas in the Cycadaceae family. When watering, follow the principle of keeping it wet rather than dry. Make sure the soil is always moist before and after watering. Do not wait until it is dry to water it, as this will cause the plant to dehydrate and wither.

1. Watering in spring: Spring is the time when the iron tree grows vigorously, and its demand for water is very high. Usually, just keep the soil moist, and water it about once every 3-4 days.

2. Watering in summer: Summer is a season with relatively high temperature, and water evaporates relatively quickly, so watering is necessary. Generally, water the plants once a day. In midsummer, you can water them two or three times a day.

3. Watering in autumn: Autumn is the peak growth season for the iron tree. Just like in spring, you only need to water it about every two or three days.

4. Watering in winter: In winter, the iron tree enters a dormant period and needs to be protected from frost. It only needs to be watered once every 10 days or so.

What kind of water is good for iron trees?

1. Mineral water: Mineral water is rich in minerals, which is beneficial to its growth. Note that you cannot use tap water directly for irrigation. The tap water needs to be left for two days to remove the chlorine.
