How to judge whether the tiger skin plant is lack of water and how to water it correctly

1. How to judge water shortage

1. Leaf changes: When the snake plant is short of water, the leaves will become very hard and feel rough. Normal leaves that are not short of water will be softer, and the color of the leaves will also change, making the leaves darker. If you notice changes in the leaves, you can water them in time to ensure growth needs.

2. The surface soil in the pot becomes dry: Tiger Piranha does not like moisture, but if it is not watered for a long time, the surface soil in the pot will become dry. The soil will be relatively dry, a little whitish, and may also have cracks.

3. Lighter weight: When the Sansevieria is short of water, there is no moisture in the soil and the weight becomes much lighter. You can easily feel it by weighing it.

4. Crisp sound: When the soil in the flowerpot is lacking water, gently tap the walls of the flowerpot and a crisp sound will be heard, which means you can water the plant.

2. How to water correctly

The climatic conditions in different seasons are different, so the frequency of watering is also different. In spring and autumn, the growth is more vigorous, so you can water it once a week. In summer, watering is more frequent, and you can water it twice a week if the evaporation is vigorous. The plant does not require much water in winter and grows slowly, so it can be watered about once every two weeks. Each time you water, you must control the amount of water to ensure that it is watered thoroughly.
