Kapok has a strong drought tolerance, so you don’t need to water it too frequently when maintaining potted plants. It should be dry rather than wet. No matter what stage of growth the plant is in, there should not be too much water or water accumulation. Usually, let the potting soil dry before watering it appropriately. If you encounter continuous rainy days, you need to take shelter from the rain and drain the rainwater from the flowerpot, otherwise the plant growth will be hindered.

The drought tolerance of kapok is relatively strong, so you don’t need to water it too frequently when growing it in pots. Regardless of the growth stage or season, watering can be carried out according to the principle of preferring dryness to wetness. Water when you find that the soil in the pot is dry, and water it in an appropriate amount without allowing water to accumulate. In addition, if you encounter continuous rainy days, you must take shelter from the rain and drain the rainwater to avoid waterlogging.

< p>1. Prepare pot soil: Kapok has a relatively large root system, so choose a slightly larger flower pot when planting. The soil should be loose, breathable, with good drainage and slightly acidic. This soil environment is more conducive to the growth of kapok.

2. Choose seedlings: When planting, choose strong seedlings. No diseases or insect infestations. Before potting, prune the roots first, and cut off old, dead, and rotten roots to promote better absorption of nutrients in the later period and faster recovery of growth.

3. Planting in pots: When potting, first put a small amount of soil in the pot, and then put the treated seedlings. Fill in the soil carefully and press down after filling the soil to make the roots and soil tightly combined.

4. Later maintenance: Water as soon as possible after potting. Water once, pay attention to the amount of water, not too much. In the later stage, more ventilation and more sunshine are needed so that the plants can grow vigorously.
