How often should you water your dahlias?Spring is the growing season for dahlias. Generally, they only need to be watered once every 3-4 days in spring. The principle is not to water when the soil is dry, and to water when the soil is dry. The temperature in summer will be relatively high, and generally, watering is needed every 1-2 days. The watering intervals in autumn and spring are similar, and generally, watering is done once every 3-4 days. In winter, dahlias will enter a semi-dormant state, and the demand for water is relatively low at this time. Generally, they only need to be watered once every 1-2 weeks. You can collect rainwater and snow water for watering. If you don’t have any, use standing tap water.How to water dahlias1. Observe the potting soil : Water the dahlia once. In fact, the time is not fixed. Because the temperature, light intensity, humidity, etc. in each season are constantly changing, the growth rate of dahlias will be different, and the watering interval will be different. Usually water once every 3-7 days, and the specific time depends on the dryness and wetness of the soil. 2. Water thoroughly : Although the watering time is constantly changing, the amount of watering each time is easy to judge. The method to judge is to water it thoroughly. If water flows out from the bottom of the flowerpot, it means that it has been watered thoroughly. If you continue to water, there will be problems of over-humidity or water accumulation, which will cause the branches and leaves of the dahlia to grow rapidly. Therefore, do not water too much. Dahlia watering precautions1. Watering the seedlings : Dahlias do not require much water during the seedling stage. You can water them once a day on a sunny day to keep the soil moist. It is best to water them in the evening. 2. Watering during the growing season : More water is consumed in the late growth stage and during the growing season. Noon and evening are the most prone to water shortage. The amount of watering should be increased appropriately, but be careful not to water too much to avoid water accumulation and root rot. What to do if you overwater your dahliasFirst, find a way to drain the water out of the soil. You can turn over the soil and place it in a ventilated place to allow the water to evaporate. You can also raise the flower pot to allow water to flow out from the bottom. Then reduce watering and it will gradually recover. |
