1. The key to watering azalea is to not water it unless the soil is dry. You can't just look at the surface of the soil in the pot. You can knock on the pot and listen to the sound to determine whether it needs watering. If the flowerpot makes a dull sound, it means the soil in the pot is relatively moist and does not need watering; if the sound is crisp, it means the soil in the pot is dry and needs watering.

2. In spring and autumn, water the plant about once every 2-3 days. In summer, when the temperature is high and the climate is dry, water the plant 1-2 times a day.

1. If you find that the soil in the pot is grayish white, it means that the soil is dry and needs watering; if the soil in the pot is dark brown, it means that the soil is not dry yet and does not need watering for the time being.

2. Poke the soil in the pot with your finger. If the soil feels hard and dry, it means it is dry and needs watering. If the soil feels soft and moist, it means it is not time to water it yet.

3. If the flowerpot makes a crisp sound, it means the soil in the pot is dry and you can water it. If the sound is dull, then you don’t need to water it.
