How often should you water your gourd?In spring, it is generally the growing season for gourds. At this time, watering should not be too much or too little. Generally, it is watered once every 3-5 days. In summer, it needs to be reduced to once every 1-2 days. In early autumn, it needs to be reduced to once every 3 days. When the gourds are mature, they no longer need so much water. In winter, the gourds are dormant and do not need watering at this time. When watering, try to use pure or mineral-containing water.Gourd watering method1. Observe the soil in the pot : When watering the gourd, it is better to keep it dry than wet, but it cannot be too dry. If the weather is dry, the moisture in the pot soil evaporates quickly. You can water it when the soil is dry. 2. Watering during the peak growing season : Before flowering, watering is required to provide sufficient water for the flowers to bloom. In addition to water, thin fertilizers should be applied frequently, mainly phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. 3. Watering in summer : During the summer, the outside temperature is high and the evaporation is large, so frequent watering is required. During the maintenance period, it can be watered once every 1 to 2 days to replenish moisture for the branches and leaves. Precautions for watering gourds1. Do not water too much : During the flowering period, you should pay attention to watering the gourd in moderation to avoid excessive water, which will cause the flowers to fall off. During the maintenance period, you need to control the water and water it after the soil becomes dry. 2. Watering during the maintenance period : During the maintenance period, you must pay attention to giving the gourd sufficient water, light and fertilizer. If there is insufficient water, the gourd will crack. If there is insufficient light and fertilizer, the gourd will grow smaller and smaller and will grow deformed fruits. What to do if you overwater your gourdWhen raising gourd seedlings, if there is too much moisture in the soil, the roots of the gourd seedlings will have difficulty breathing, resulting in root rot and rooting, and eventually the leaves of the gourd seedlings will wither. At this time, the moisture in the soil needs to be discharged in time, and then the watering should be controlled. |
