How often should I water the goose palm?

Watering method of goosefoot

1. Observe the potting soil : Generally, a small amount of watering is sufficient once a day to keep the soil slightly moist. In spring and autumn, watering once or twice a week is enough to meet its water needs.

2. Watering during the peak growing season : Summer is the growing season for Schefflera arborvitae. Watering should be done when the soil shows signs of dryness. Be careful not to water too much. In the hot and dry summer, you can increase the watering frequency appropriately, because the evaporation at this time is relatively large, and the excess water will evaporate quickly.

Precautions for watering goosefoot

1. Water according to the temperature : If the temperature drops below 10 degrees, water once every 5-7 days. If the temperature is above 10 degrees, water once every 3-5 days. Also, be sure to spray water when it is sunny to avoid low humidity.

2. Reduce the amount of watering in winter : After entering December, the growth of Schefflera arborvitae is basically stagnant, but we cannot completely stop watering it, otherwise Schefflera arborvitae will wither due to lack of water. While keeping the soil dry, water it once a week.

What to do if you water the goosefoot too much?

1. If you don't pay attention to watering and always water too much, Schefflera will lose leaves;

2. At this time, the first thing we need to do is to observe whether there is any rot in the roots;

3. If there is any, you need to remove the pot, cut off the rotten roots and replant it. If there is no water, you need to drain the accumulated water and reduce the number of watering, then put it in a cool and ventilated place, and it will return to normal after a period of time.
