How to water asparagus fern

The dangers of improper watering

It can be said that watering is the key point in the cultivation of asparagus fern. If you water too much and the drainage is not smooth, the soil will be too wet, and the roots of asparagus fern will easily rot. However, if there is too little watering, the tips of the asparagus fern leaves will turn yellow and burnt, which will affect its growth.

How to water asparagus fern

Watering of asparagus fern requires a plan, but it also depends on the climate and weather conditions at the time. If the climate is relatively humid and it is in the rainy season, you can water it less than usual. If the climate is dry and the weather is hot, we can spray water on the leaves of asparagus fern to cool it down and increase the humidity. In winter, less watering is needed.

The water requirement of asparagus fern is not too large. Generally speaking, it can be watered once every fifteen days in spring, once every thirty days in summer and autumn, and once every forty-five days in winter. When we water asparagus fern, we should be careful not to water it halfway. When watering, we must completely water the soil where asparagus fern is planted and let the water completely penetrate into the roots of asparagus fern.

So in general, if the soil where asparagus fern is planted is not particularly dry, there is no need to water it. If watering is required, the planting soil must be completely watered. Although asparagus fern likes a humid environment, it is very afraid of waterlogging. In addition, asparagus fern needs to be watered thoroughly, so when choosing the soil for planting asparagus fern, you must choose loose soil with good drainage.
