How to water Dieffenbachia

The water requirement of Dieffenbachia

Dieffenbachia likes moisture and is not drought-tolerant. Also, because its roots are fleshy, excessive waterlogging will cause root rot, so it is not tolerant to waterlogging. Generally speaking, it has relatively high requirements for water, so water replenishment is an extremely important link. Generally speaking, during its peak growing season, such as spring and autumn, maintain adequate water supply and pay attention to the dryness and wetness of the surrounding soil. In summer, because of the excessive evaporation, the supply of water must be guaranteed and watering must be done regularly, once or twice a day. In addition, the humidity of the surrounding space can be increased by sprinkling water, spraying, etc. It is best to control water in winter and keep it slightly dry to prevent the soil in the pot from being too wet and causing root rot or leaf fall.

Some issues that should be noted

It is best to keep the water temperature roughly the same as the room temperature so as not to damage the roots.

No matter what season you water in, it is better to keep the soil slightly moist than to let it be too dry.

When watering during the growing season, in order to promote plant development, some nutrient solution can be added to the water.

The season that should be paid most attention to is summer. In addition to regular watering and spraying water on the leaves, you can also sprinkle water on the ground or spray in the surrounding environment to maintain the humidity level in the air.

When watering, you should control the speed, not too fast, pour it slowly. When the water slowly flows into the soil and then flows out from the bottom of the pot, it can be considered watered thoroughly.

In addition to watering, another factor regarding moisture is rain. You should know that the evergreen should not be drenched by heavy rain when it is in bloom, so place it in a place where it will not be affected by heavy rain.
