How to water the potted Cyperus rotundus, adjust the watering time for good absorption!

Specific watering method

summer

The Cardinal Tetrapoda originally grows in tropical rainforest areas, so it likes a humid and warm environment very much, so special attention should be paid to daily watering.

Summer is the most prosperous season for its growth, and the demand for water is very high. The hot weather will also accelerate the evaporation of water. At this time, the soil must be kept moist. You can observe the soil when watering. If the soil is slightly dry, you must water it, but waterlogging must not occur.

winter

In winter, watering should be done at noon. Before watering, the water should be kept indoors for a few days to allow the water temperature to reach the same level as the room temperature. Too cold water will harm the plants. Its flowering period is from February to August, so before that, the soil must not be too moist, otherwise it will greatly affect its flowering effect.

Precautions

In addition to the watering point, the air humidity is also very important. During the seedling stage, the most suitable air humidity is between 75% and 85%. As the seedlings grow, the air humidity can be reduced by 5%. Too much humidity or dryness is not conducive to its growth. Normally, you can humidify it by spraying water.

During the growing season in summer and autumn, the air humidity should be kept above 80% to make the surface of its leaves shiny.

When the flowers are in bloom, be sure not to spray water on the surface of the plant, otherwise the flowers will wither prematurely.
