How does Epiphyllum survive the winter? Is it better to water it in the morning or at night?

1. How to spend the winter

1. Temperature: Epiphyllum is a plant that likes to grow in a warm environment. It should be kept indoors during the winter, and the indoor temperature should be kept at around 13 degrees Celsius. Low temperature will affect the growth of Epiphyllum.

2. Sunlight: It has a great demand for light, so it should be placed in a sunny place. It can absorb more light in a place with good light, which is also very beneficial for the Epiphyllum to survive the winter.

3. Fertilization: Fertilizer should be applied once before winter, and no fertilization is needed after winter.

2. Is it better to water in the morning or at night?

It is usually best to water it in the morning. When watering it at night, water tends to accumulate in the pot, which can easily cause root rot. Before watering, you should place the water in the pot to air for a while to increase the oxygen content of the water, and then pour the water into the soil from the edge of the pot to avoid spraying water on the leaves.

When caring for the plant in summer, watering should be done in the morning or afternoon, and in winter, watering should be done at noon. Otherwise, if the water temperature is too low, the chance of frostbite will increase. The amount of water for irrigation should be adjusted according to the growth period, and the principle of watering is to water thoroughly without water accumulation.
