How often should the peacock ball be watered?

1. How often?

1. Spring and Autumn: The climate in spring and autumn is very mild, and this is the peak growth period. The peacock ball is sprouting branches and has a certain demand for water. If no water is applied, the soil in the pot will become dry and barren, hindering the growth process. At this time, you can water it once a week to ensure that there is enough water supply during growth.

2. Summer: Although the plant is growing normally in summer, there is no need to apply too much water due to the hot weather. You can maintain the original frequency, or water once every five days or so, depending on the growth environment. However, please note that when the temperature exceeds 35 degrees Celsius, the growth will be slow and excessive watering will cause root damage.

3. Winter: The climate in winter is very cold, and the growth basically stagnates. The plant will enter dormancy or semi-dormancy, and the demand for water becomes very small, so no watering is required. If the growing environment is too dry, you can water it once a month to meet the growth needs.

2. Precautions

How often you water the plants is not only determined by the season, but also by the specific weather conditions. If the weather is clear and the sunshine is good, the watering time can be shorter. If there is long-term rainy weather, the frequency can be reduced.
