How often should petunias be watered?Spring is its peak growth season, and it needs to be watered every two or three days. In summer, the temperature is high and water evaporates quickly, so it should be watered once in the morning and evening to keep the soil moist. In autumn, the amount of water should be reduced, and it is only needed to be watered once a week. Watering should be done during the day. In winter, the low temperature environment causes the plant to grow slowly, so water should be strictly controlled. There is no need to water if the soil is not dry. Use river water, well water, fermented rice water, or tea water for watering.How to water petunias1. Observe the potting soil : Because the petunia grows on a large scale and its root system in the soil is very developed, it needs a lot of water, so the soil must be kept moist to adapt to its growth. 2. Watering during the peak growing season : Watering during the peak growing season needs to be done at a relatively cool time. At the same time, when watering, water should be poured slowly into the soil so that the roots can absorb it better. Petunia watering precautions1. Do not water too much : Petunia is afraid of waterlogging and needs to be grown in well-drained sandy loam. It needs appropriate amount of watering during the maintenance period. Follow the principle of watering only when the soil is not dry. If the soil is still moist, be careful not to water it. 2. Reduce the amount of watering in winter : The temperature is lower in winter and the climate is cold. After petunias enter a dormant state, they do not require much water. It is necessary to keep the soil dry to avoid frostbite on the petunias' roots. What to do if you overwater your petuniaIf you water the petunia too much, you need to drain it first, then let it dry before planting it. Then use two 5 cm high objects to pad the sides of the bottom of the pot to allow the bottom drainage holes to be as ventilated as possible. This will increase ventilation in the pot and reduce the possibility of root suffocation caused by excessive watering. |
