How to water Christmas cactus in summer

How to water Christmas cactus in summer

1. Spray more water

Although we cannot water too much in the summer, because of the high temperature and fast evaporation of water, we should often spray water on its leaves and around the pot. This can maintain a high air humidity for a long time and play a cooling role. When spraying water, only 2 to 3 times a day is enough. After spraying, place it in a well-ventilated place to prevent diseases and pests.

2. Sitz-pot method

When watering it, we can use the basin method. At this time, the water should not be too much. Then place the flower pot in the basin, and just let the water cover a quarter of the pot. This will prevent the soil from being too dry or too wet. To help it get through the summer smoothly.

3. Check if it is missing

Many people don't know how to determine whether their plants are short of water in the summer. In fact, we can judge by lifting or knocking the pot. For example, if you find that the pot becomes obviously lighter when lifting it, it means it is short of water and you should water it in time. In addition, you can also judge based on the condition of the soil, such as whether the surface of the soil turns white, and then find chopsticks and insert them into the soil at a depth of 2 to 3 centimeters. Then you can water it according to the moisture of the chopsticks.
