How to water peach blossoms? How often should potted peach blossoms be watered?

1. Watering in spring and autumn

The temperatures in spring and autumn are relatively close, so the watering intervals are basically the same. The difference is that as the temperature rises in spring, the water demand gradually increases, while as the temperature drops in autumn, the water demand slowly decreases. Usually it needs to be watered 2-3 times a week. If it encounters the rainy season, reduce watering or extend the watering time to avoid the overly humid climate affecting its growth.

2. Watering in summer

The temperature is relatively high in summer and water evaporates quickly, so watering should be more frequent. Usually it needs to be watered every day, and if the climate is very dry, it should be watered twice a day. The best time to water is in the morning or evening. Avoid watering at noon, otherwise the evaporation of water will absorb too much heat, causing low temperatures in the roots and affecting its development.

3. Watering in winter

The growth rate of peach blossoms is relatively slow in winter, so the demand for water is not great at this time. In this case, watering needs to be controlled. Generally, it is sufficient to water it once a week, and cold water should not be used. The water temperature must at least be consistent with room temperature. If the environment is relatively humid, you can also postpone the watering time and check the potting soil regularly. As long as it is not very dry, you can skip watering.

IV. Precautions

When watering peach blossoms, rainwater or river water is usually used. This kind of water is also called soft water, which is different from the tap water at home, which is hard water. Soft water contains certain trace elements, which is very helpful for the growth and development of plants. If you can only use tap water, you must leave it for a few days to allow the chlorine to evaporate before using it.
