How often should I water the Begonia?

Growth habit:

Begonia is suitable for living in relatively warm and humid soil. It likes sunlight and is afraid of severe cold.

Watering in stages:

Begonia requires moist and warm soil, and the watering time is different in different periods.

Watering during the seedling stage: During the seedling stage, reduce the frequency and amount of watering, and keep the soil relatively dry. If the soil remains moist at this time, it will easily cause the roots of the seedlings to rot.

Watering during the growing period: During the growing period, you can water it about once every two days, but you should often use a watering can to spray water around the plant to keep the surrounding environment moist.

Watering time:

Generally, it is not suitable to water plants at night, and it is best to water them around 9 am. If you choose to water at night, it is easy to cause root rot of the Begonia, because there is no photosynthesis at night, and most of the water is in the roots, which will cause root rot.

Note:

When watering the begonia, be sure not to water the flowers or leaves. If water accumulates on the flowers or leaves, it can easily cause them to rot. It is best to let the water flow slowly along the edge of the basin.
