Does pitaya potted plant like water? How often should it be watered?

1. Do you like water?

Dragon fruit potted plants like water and they like to grow in a humid environment, but during maintenance they should also be watered according to actual conditions and do not allow too much water to accumulate in the pot. Especially during the growing season, there must be sufficient water. Water it more in spring and summer so that the roots can absorb enough water and grow more vigorously.

You don’t have to water the plants in rainy or cloudy days. If there is accumulated rainwater after the rain, you must drain it immediately. Also, during the fruit growth stage, you should water more often to keep the soil slightly moist, which is also conducive to fruit enlargement. If you water it too much, it will easily be infected with bacteria, which will cause its roots and stems to rot.

2. Watering frequency

Under normal circumstances, there is no fixed number of times to water dragon fruit, because its water requirements are different in each stage and the climate is also different, so it depends on the specific situation. The scientific and reasonable method of watering is not to water unless the soil is dry. If the soil surface is moist, there is no need to water it again. When it is dry, just add water.

3. Notes

When you find that there is too much water in the pot, you need to take drainage measures, or place the potted plant in a more ventilated location. This can speed up the evaporation of water in the pot and avoid rot to a large extent.
