How often should I water the red spider lily?

The water demand of Red Spider Lily is roughly the same throughout the year. Watering it once every four days or so can meet its growth needs. Under natural conditions, it grows in a dark and humid environment. Therefore, during the planting process, we should try our best to provide such an environment and keep the soil moist at all times to avoid drying up and causing the plant to lose water. When watering, it is best to choose river water. Tap water that has been exposed to the sun is also acceptable.

How to water the red spider lily

1. Check the soil: If the soil where the red spider lily grows becomes dry, add water in time to avoid further damage to the plant.

2. Observe the leaves: If the leaves of the red spider lily shrink, it means it is about to go dormant, and you should stop watering it.

Precautions for watering red spider lily

1. Don’t water too much: Red spider lily is not tolerant to waterlogging, and its roots are very sensitive to water. It only needs a small amount of water. If you water it too much, water will accumulate in the soil, and root rot is likely to occur.

2. Watering time: It is best to water in the cool and comfortable evening, so that the plants can absorb water more comfortably. If you water at noon, it will easily cause intensified transpiration, which will cause the plants to lose water.

What to do if you water the red spider lily too much

1. Enhance ventilation: Open the windows to allow air circulation, and use the method of speeding up the air flow to allow the dry air to bring out excess moisture in the plant soil.

2. Change the soil: Replace the moist soil in the pot that is not connected to the roots with dry garden soil. This will allow the plant to absorb excess water by taking advantage of the property that water is attracted to dry places.
