3. Precautions

When watering it, it must be watered thoroughly so that the deep roots can contact the water. Otherwise, the deep soil will be in a dry state for a long time, which will harm the growth of the bougainvillea. If you accidentally water too much, if the situation is not serious, just pay attention to ventilation and control the water. If poor performance occurs, the plant will need to be dug out and its roots pruned, and the old soil used for previous cultivation will also need to be replaced.

1. Do you need to water thoroughly?

When watering the bougainvillea, you need to water it thoroughly. Only when the soil is thoroughly watered can the roots at the bottom absorb the water. Don't stop watering halfway, because then the deep roots will be in a long-term drought state, which will have a great impact on their growth. But be careful not to allow water to accumulate in the pot soil, as this will easily damage its root system.

2. What to do if you water too much< /h2>

After watering the bougainvillea too much, if the situation is not too serious and the flower soil has good air permeability, then you only need to control the watering and increase ventilation. But if the plant develops adverse symptoms due to excessive watering, then the soil should be changed. Dig the plant out of the pot and replace the soil with new soil. After removing the pot, check whether there are any rotten roots. If there are any, they need to be pruned. Don't forget to disinfect the roots after pruning, or apply some plant ash to the wound.

3. Precautions

1. Watering cannot be carried out blindly. You should wait until the soil in the flower pot is dry before watering. If you water it too frequently, if the water cannot evaporate, it will also cause root rot. In addition, water should be controlled on cloudy and rainy days, because water transpiration will slow down at this time, and if watering is still carried out normally, water accumulation will easily occur.

2. After watering, you should pay attention to proper ventilation, or move it outdoors for a few hours. This can prevent root rot to a large extent.
