Sound MethodThis method is to tap the flower pot with a wooden stick or your fingers and judge based on the sound it makes. If the sound is crisp, it means that the soil in the pot has become dry; if the sound is low and dull, it means that the soil in the pot still has a lot of moisture and does not need watering. Visual inspectionObserve the color of the soil surface to see if it changes. If the color becomes lighter or grayish white, it means that the soil in the pot is dry and needs watering; if the color is darker, it means that the soil in the pot is moist and you do not need to water it for the time being. Finger testInsert your finger 2 to 3 cm deep into the soil and feel the soil. If it feels rough and hard, it means the soil in the pot is dry and needs to be watered immediately; if it feels moist and the soil is fine and soft, it means the soil in the pot is moist and you don't need to water it for the time being. Pinch and twist methodTwist the soil in the pot with your fingers. If the soil becomes powdery after spitting, it means that the soil in the pot is dry and you need to water it immediately; if the soil becomes flaky or granular, it means that the soil in the pot is moist and you do not need to water it for the time being. Judging by the growth status of the flowers themselvesThis method is to judge by observing whether the flowers are growing vigorously and vibrantly. If potted flowers lack water, the plants will appear lifeless. In severe cases, the leaves and new shoots will wilt and droop, or even wither and turn yellow, with dull leaves. If it is the flowering period, the flowers will wilt or even fall off. However, the occurrence of these phenomena is not necessarily caused by lack of water. It may also be caused by other reasons such as disease, insect pests, lack of fertilizer, excessive water, root rot, unsuitable temperature, invasion of harmful gases, etc., and must be carefully observed and judged. |
