How to water Lithops

2. Watering in summer

Unlike other plants, Lithops is dormant in the summer. Its functions decline rapidly at this time and its demand for water is not great. Moreover, it is not tolerant to waterlogging, so you must not water it too often. Watering it once every 20 days to a month is sufficient.

3. Watering in Autumn

In autumn, Lithops will slowly awaken from its dormant state, and its demand for water will gradually increase. At this time, it only needs to be watered once every three days or so.

4. Watering in winter

Generally speaking, there is no fixed time to water it in winter. When the soil is dry, just water it once.

5. Notes

Do not use tap water directly to water Lithops. Tap water contains chlorine, so it needs to be dried naturally for a few days before watering the plants. The purpose of drying is to release the chlorine in the water. It is not tolerant to waterlogging, so don't water it too much. Just make sure the soil is moist and not lumpy. If there is water accumulation, it will cause the roots of Lithops to rot. Succulent plants are most afraid of root rot, and once root rot occurs, there is basically no hope, so be sure to avoid this situation.
