The frequency of watering heather is related to the season. Water more frequently in summer, once a day to keep the pot soil moist. Watering can be less in spring and autumn, just water once every 2-3 days. You can also spray water around to increase the humidity of the environment. Generally, rice water is used to water the flowers, but they should be left to dry for a few days before watering. If there is water in the pot soil, it needs to be drained in time and the soil loosened to speed up water evaporation.

Heather has different water needs in different seasons. In summer, it requires a lot of water and needs to be watered every day to keep the pot soil moist. Watering in spring and autumn can be appropriately less, watering once every 2-3 days. You can also spray water on the leaves to increase the humidity of the environment.

2. Water quality requirements

Europe Heather should not be watered with alkaline water. Ordinary tap water cannot be used to water flowers directly, as it contains chlorine, which is detrimental to plant growth. You can leave it for a few days until the chlorine evaporates before using it again. If you want to improve the alkalinity of the soil, you can add a little ferrous sulfate to the water.

3. Water accumulation treatment

Although heather likes a humid environment, if the pot soil is too moist or there is water accumulation, it will easily breed bacteria, and in severe cases, it will cause root rot. Therefore, it is necessary to drain the accumulated water in the pot soil in time, loosen the soil appropriately, and put it in a well-ventilated place to accelerate the evaporation of water. If the roots are rotten, remove them from the pot and cut off the rotten roots. Then soak it in carbendazim solution, disinfect it and replant it.
