How often should peony be watered? When should peony be watered?

1. Watering time

Peonies can be watered all year round. Because they have good drought resistance and do not require much water, they should not be watered on rainy days, otherwise it will be too humid, causing bacteria to grow and causing diseases and insect pests. Watering is usually done on sunny days, and avoid noon in summer, otherwise the water will evaporate too quickly and cause the ground temperature to drop.

2. Watering interval

Peonies should be watered thoroughly when the soil is completely dry, so it is difficult to control the watering interval. Normally, they should be watered every 5-7 days in spring and autumn, shortened to 2-3 days in summer, and once a month in winter. If you live in a humid climate, you can extend the watering interval. If it is very dry, you should water more frequently.

3. Water temperature and water quality

When watering peonies, you need to pay attention to the water temperature and water quality. Do not use cold water directly for watering. You need to wait until the water temperature is close to room temperature before using it. In addition, watering with rainwater or river water is better for the growth of plants. If it is tap water, it needs to be left for a few days until the chlorine evaporates before use.

IV. Precautions

Peonies are afraid of moisture, so do not water them too much, especially do not allow water to accumulate. If you water too much, you need to drain the excess water as soon as possible, put it in a ventilated place, loosen the soil appropriately, and accelerate the evaporation of water. If the stagnant water has caused root rot, you will need to remove the plant from the pot, trim it appropriately with scissors, and then replant it in dry new soil.
