How to judge whether the green radish lacks water

1. Chopsticks Judgment Method

Insert the chopsticks into the soil and take them out after a few minutes. If the chopsticks do not become moist and no soil comes out, it means there is a lack of water and you should water the plant in time. You can also pinch the planting soil. If it turns into powder after pinching, it means it is in a state of water shortage. If it becomes granular after pinching, it means the soil is still very moist and you don't need to water it yet.

2. Look at the surface of the pot soil

Check the dryness and wetness of the surface of the potting soil. If the surface soil has become dry, use your hands to turn over the deeper soil. If only the surface is dry, it means there is no shortage of water. If the deep soil layer begins to dry out, it means that there is a lack of water and water needs to be replenished as soon as possible. Knock on the flowerpot with a wooden stick or your hand. If you hear a muffled sound, it proves there is water. If the sound is very crisp, it means that all the water in the pot has evaporated and you need to water it as soon as possible.

3. Check the status of the leaves

If the leaves of the green ivy are not firm and are wilting, it means that it is lacking water; if the leaves are in good growth condition, green and upright, it means that the soil in the flowerpot has moisture, so there is no need to water it yet. You can also weigh the flower pot. If it is very light, you should water it.
