How often should sugarcane be watered?

During the germination stage, the water requirement is not much, water it once every 3-5 days. During the tillering stage, the transpiration effect is not large, so not much water is required, water it once every 2-3 days. During the elongation stage, this is the growth period, watering is needed every day to keep the soil moist. When it reaches the maturity stage, watering once every 1-2 days is enough, and river, lake water and well water are best for irrigation.

Sugarcane watering method

1. Observe the soil in the pot : As long as you see that the soil of the sugarcane is dry, you need to water it. Don't water too much, just keep it moist.

2. Watering during the peak growing season : Sugarcane requires a large amount of water, so irrigation should be strengthened in the early growth stages. Watering is not necessary during the rainy season as it cannot tolerate waterlogging. Too much water accumulation will cause root rot, so timely drainage is required.

Sugarcane watering precautions

1. Do not water too much : The soil for planting sugarcane should be kept moist, but not too much water. Pay attention to drainage in the rainy season to prevent waterlogging and root rot. Indoor potted plants should be slightly dry in winter. If they are too humid, the leaves will rot easily and the sugarcane will die directly. Therefore, the amount of watering should be controlled and appropriate watering will be enough.

2. Watering during the growing season : July to September is the period of sugarcane elongation, and it is also the period with the highest water demand. It is required to irrigate the sugarcane fields frequently to keep the soil moist at all times.

What to do if sugarcane is overwatered

Spray or rinse the sugarcane seedlings with clean water in time to clean the mud on the soaked leaves of the sugarcane seedlings. At the same time, pull out the diseased and dead sugarcane plants in the field and remove the diseased leaves to improve ventilation and light conditions and reduce the sources of disease.
