How to water bamboo cypress

Habits of Bamboo Cypress

This plant likes to grow in a relatively warm and humid environment, so it has high requirements for water. And, like many other plants, it does not like too much water. If the soil is too watery, its roots will be soaked in wet and sticky soil, which may damage its roots.

How to water at different times

Spring and summer are generally the peak seasons for plant development. Due to the high temperature, transpiration is also strong, so more water is needed. So keep the soil in the pot moist and don't let it get too dry. If you can't see clearly with the naked eye, you can touch the surface soil with your hand. If it is dry, water it. If the surface is wet, then there is no lack of water inside. At this time, you don't need to water it, otherwise it is very likely to be overwatering.

The amount of water required in autumn is average. You can water it every two to three days to keep the soil slightly moist, which is enough to meet the needs of the plants.

Needless to say, in winter, most plants generally don't need much water, so it's best to stop watering at this time. Or if you see that the soil in the pot is too dry or the leaves of the plant are beginning to wilt, water it appropriately, about once a week.

There are a few points to note

In order to prevent the leaves from drying up and falling off in a dry environment, you can spray some water around the plant or on the leaves. Of course, doing this can also wash away the dust around the plants, making the plants look cleaner and more beautiful.

In summer, you cannot water the plants in the afternoon when the temperature is high. Generally speaking, morning and evening are more suitable.

Depending on the degree of moisture preference of the plant, it is important to understand that both too dry and too wet are bad for the plant. The most important thing about watering is to adjust the "degree".
