Should the houseplant be watered thoroughly?

1. Do you need to water thoroughly?

For it, whether to water it thoroughly or not depends on the specific situation. During the spring and autumn growing seasons, it is necessary to water it thoroughly each time to ensure that the water can flow out and allow the roots underneath to absorb water completely to avoid a situation where the top is wet and the bottom is water-starved. At the same time, be careful not to allow water to accumulate. When watering before dormancy, there is no need to water it thoroughly. Just water it halfway will be enough. This will also encourage the roots to absorb water and grow, laying a good foundation for growth during the upcoming dormancy period.

2. Precautions

1. Not only does the watering make a difference, but there are also differences in different growth stages. The plants grow vigorously during the growth period and require more water. You can water them every 3-5 days to ensure good growth. During the dormant stage, the water requirement drops rapidly and there is not much demand for water. Too much watering will affect growth. It is sufficient to water once every 20-30 days.

2. Pay attention to the time of watering. You can choose to water in the morning or evening, and avoid noon. Otherwise, the water will be relatively cool, and the soil in the pot will be very hot under the sunlight at noon. Watering at this time will cause damage to the root system.
