Should we water asparagus fern thoroughly? How to water it thoroughly?

1. Do you need to water thoroughly?

When watering asparagus fern, be sure to water the soil thoroughly. Only by watering slowly and thoroughly can the water penetrate into the deep soil and the roots at the bottom can absorb water and grow stronger. But at the same time, it is very afraid of waterlogging. If the amount of watering is not controlled during maintenance, waterlogging and root rot will easily occur.

2. How to calculate thorough watering

1. There is water at the bottom of the pot: When watering it, you can observe the bottom of the pot, because there are drainage holes at the bottom of the pot. After watering thoroughly, water will flow out from the bottom of the pot or it will be relatively moist. But watering must be done slowly, not with large amounts of water.

2. Listen to the sound: After watering, gently tap the flower pot. If the sound is dull and the soil is moist, it means it is watered thoroughly. On the contrary, if the sound is very crisp, it is most likely that it was not watered thoroughly.

3. Feel the weight: People who often grow plants will use this method. Feel the weight of the entire flowerpot by yourself, before and after watering, and then compare them to know whether it is watered thoroughly.

4. There is water at the mouth of the pot: Usually, after watering it thoroughly, there is usually water at the mouth of the pot, and it will not seep down for a while. In this case, it is mostly watered. Generally, if the plant is not watered thoroughly, the water will slowly penetrate into the deep soil and there will be no water at the mouth of the pot.
