How often should peanuts be watered?

Water the peanuts less during the seedling stage. Excessive watering will cause the roots to rot and die. It is best to water them once every half a month or a month. They will need more water during the flowering period and cannot lack water at this time. Sufficient water should be ensured. Water them once every two weeks. Water less during the pod-setting stage. Too much water will cause the fruits to rot. If there is rainfall, drainage measures should be taken. You can choose well water or river or lake water for watering.

Peanut watering method

1. Watering time : Watering should not be done at noon, because the temperature at noon is too high. Watering will accelerate the transpiration of the plant and burn the peanut seedlings.

2. Watering before harvesting : Peanuts have strict requirements for water from fruit growth to harvesting. Too much water will cause fruit rot, and too little water will affect fruit growth. Generally, just keep the soil moist.

Precautions for watering peanuts

1. Do not water too much : Peanuts are easily infected with root rot during the growing period. This pathogen mainly relies on rainwater and field transmission, so during the seedling stage, the ground temperature should not be too low, otherwise it is easy to cause this disease.

2. Control the amount of watering during the growing period : During the growth period of the plant, control the amount of watering to avoid excessive or insufficient watering, which will affect plant growth and reduce yield.

What to do if peanuts are overwatered

If you accidentally water the peanuts too much, you should take drainage measures immediately. If the water has completely penetrated into the soil, you need to loosen the soil with a shovel, let the plant bask in the sun for a while, and then increase ventilation, so that it will slowly recover.
