Watering according to dahlia habits

There is one important point that must be mentioned about watering dahlias, that is, dahlias are a kind of flower that is afraid of both waterlogging and drought, but at the same time, dahlias like moisture very much, so flower lovers need to pay more attention to watering. After all, beautiful plants are not easy to care for.

How to water dahlias

If dahlias are not watered enough, their growth needs will not be met because they grow at an astonishing speed and their leaves are relatively large and lush; if they are watered too much, the roots will be over-soaked and thus rot. Therefore, when watering dahlias, you basically don’t water them until the soil is dry and don’t water them until they are thoroughly dry. Therefore, soil drainage is also very important. Please see below for specific detailed watering methods.

The scientific amount of watering for dahlias

A scientific and systematic method of watering flowers has a direct impact on the health and height of the plants. During the seedling stage of dahlias, that is, just after the dahlia seedlings are planted in the pots, the amount of watering needs to be strictly controlled, and never water too much. Otherwise, the branches and leaves will grow too long, which will be detrimental to the normal blooming of the flowers in the later period. Also refer to the principle of watering when dry and wet when wet, and the amount of water should not be too large.

How to water in different seasons

We have already talked about the growing season, which is spring. Now let’s talk about summer. The temperature is high and evaporation is strong. Flower lovers must start by lowering the ambient temperature of the flowers. Watering is generally done in the afternoon. In the morning and noon, you can use spray to cool the plants down. Gradually reduce the amount of watering in autumn and winter.
